Same length race, just encourage the pansies to race properly, and remove the artificial overtakes, such as KERS, DRS and tyres designed not to last.

I like the length of the races. Although could it work by following a touring car format...... 3 X 20 lap races where they have to push hard if they want to get ahead?  :-\ Would improve the day out....

A reverse grid and the cars have to be equipped with Wanli ditchfinders which have to last the race!  :y  That would make it more interesting!  :)

Nope but make the fuel tanks only big enough to hold fuel for 3/4 of a race and bring back dedicated refuelling  stops  :y
