Formula 1 world champion Sebastian Vettel has
criticised plans to award double points for the final race of the season from
2014.
The winning driver of next year's Abu Dhabi Grand
Prix will earn 50 points instead of 25 under the proposals.
“This is absurd and punishes those
who have worked hard for a whole season,” said the 26-year-old, who won the
final nine races in 2013.
“Drivers, fans and experts are
horrified.”
I applaud Vettel for using his position
as World Champion to come out and criticise this stupid idea of giving double
points for the final race, I can’t think what on earth possessed the powers
that be in the sport to give this proposal the go ahead.
In fact I still don’t know why they
changed the points system a few years ago so you now get 25 for a win instead
of the 10 you used to.
I think the whole idea of this is
to make it more exciting and unpredictable but I don’t think it will, and all
it’s done so far since it was announced is piss everyone off.
But as there is plenty of time left
to scrap it so fingers crossed.
