I don't know what the thinking was behind doing away with re-fuelling this season, but to me it has removed most of the interest and potential excitement from the sport. The Bahrain GP was frankly boring - and more worryingly, I can't see any of the future races being any different. No longer can you wonder "Is he really that fast, or just lightly fuelled?" And no longer is there the possibility of gaining a position or two by clever re-fuelling strategy. Other than mistakes or mechanical problems, the pattern of the race will be decided in the first couple of laps, and thereafter just become a procession. Not a good move.
