    Not a very big fan of sprint, but was thinking the same thing about the pit stop.

    In my opinion changing rules for any game is for the betterment of that game. So, lets see what impact these changes have on the game? Always hoping for the best...!!

    Yeah I totally agree with you because constantly changing the rules would disturb the drivers and the teams as well. And it was very difficult for the fans too.
