Liberty : what a good idea!

As a result of a fan survey undertaken by Liberty Media, and seen as a tool to potentially spice up the show, we could see a last-minute change to the F1 sporting rules, rewarding a championship point for setting the fastest lap during the race, and this just one week (!) before the start of the season.

If the World Motorsport Council approves this idea, it will ad some spice to the races. It will surely prevent a race leader to back off and cruise to the line, and definitely tempt one or more drivers to dive into the pits, with a few laps to go and try the gamble of getting one more championship point, on fresh tyres.
