Is it just me, or do the wheels on an f1 car fall off more readily then they have done in the past? they don't bounce around as much still attached via the wheel restraint tethers like they used to?

There are seven winners of the Monaco Grand Prix on the starting line today, and four of them are Michael Schumacher.

The length of the tethers may have been reduced for the simple fact that the more 'freedom' they have too bounce around leads to more damage?

Yes the wheels do seem to come off more easily but it depends on the nature of the accident
