      You can’t just change the cars for the sake of one track, a track that has historically been difficult for racing.

      Similar to how forcing Pirelli into high deg tyres, chasing the energy of Canada 2010 was not a good move.

        Not similar at all.

        First there is already a size regulation. Is that size regulation better for racing? Seeing that almost everyone says it makes passing hard regardless of track. I think it is safe to say no, it is a suboptimal size. Remember they used to be smaller, a lot smaller. So this would be like going back to before tire deg.

        Second you’ll notice that I said

        Plus smaller cars would make racing better at every circuit.

        Clearly I’m not trying to change the cars for one track I’m not sure how you think I said that.

        Lastly if you’re going to argue the Imola is too narrow and should go away. Then you have to argue about all the other tracks I listed because they are all narrower. The cars not fitting is not the tracks fault it is the cars fault.

        If you want to argue lmola is bad for another reason that’s totally fine but if that’s true then why did you respond to a post about car size, instead of something else.

          Never said that.

          What I am trying to get at, is that you can’t force every race to be the same. And trying to is just going to lead to disaster.

          Shrinking the cars isn’t the silver bullet that’ll fix whatever issue people have, especially at a track like Imola. It doesn’t matter how big the cars are if they can only take one line through a corner.

            Really you haven’t said much. So I had to infer your argument based in part on you choice to reply to my original comment. All you have said is a vague thing about not making cars for just one track or not making every track the same. Two thing I didn’t say should happen.

            If you are not going to articulate a clear position with some logic behind it or even respond to my position, don’t bother all you are doing is trying to move the goal posts.
