That wouldn't work. Firstly the smaller teams would be gone as they couldn't afford to compete. It's also likely a lot of the mid-field teams would struggle to afford to compete (Lotus, one of the top 5 teams can't even pay it's top driver). Secondly your qualification 'as long as it doesn't make it unsafe' is one of the reasons there are so many rules in F1. It's an incredibly dangerous sport. The engineers could easily make the cars go much quicker - but it would be too dangerous and costly.

- mafro 13y agoMaking the cars go fast has never been the issue. Making them slow down however is quite a different thing. :)
- cmsimike 13y agoI would love to see that elusive budget cap implemented but if that were to happen, I would want to ease the technological limitations. Imagine the kind of innovation if you were free to do what you want up to a max of X million/year.
- k-mcgrady 13y agoI agree, but I don't think a budget cap would be easily enforceable which is why - after years of talking about it - it has never been implemented.
