I think it's going to be totally different this year. Tires for the entire race add a new dimension, drivers will have tho choose when they want to push hard and when they want to conserve the tires. Lap times should get slower as the races progresses which will be interesting as well.

What happens if a tire blows? Is there a penalty?

tire punctures they can change it

but during the pit stop for the tire changes, NO refuelling is allowed

if it starts raining during, many cars may crash, or run off due to trying to make it back to the pits for a tire change

I call complete on this, you give him a competitive car, be it a McLaren, Williams, Honda, Renault or a Ferrari - and I bet he does better than most other drivers.

You don't understand his roll on the Ferrari team imo.....
