Do they make for a better, more competitive, interesting race?

I say they have made it more competitive, and I really like seeing that.

Purists (and I often agree with them, just not on this one) say that the best car should always win, the best car should always qualify first, etc. They argue that F1 is about the worlds best design and best engine and best driver.

I argue that computer technology has made it increasingly hard for the teams without big bucks to compete. And the new rules help close the gap.

I really like the new rules that the lowest teams on the totem pole can get extra track time.

I'm not sso sure about the new tire rules but I don't understand them fully either.

Let me know what you all think!
