I know I have now made several comments suggesting some form of handicap system would be good I am really playing "devils advocate" because I actually totally concur with this.
What I fear happens is that the sport tinkers away anyhow to bring any dominant performers back to the pack and this is often done in a way thats not conducive to good racing.
I guess what I am saying is that if there must be any changes lets at least make sure they make for interesting races. Too often that isnt the case.
One place penalty for monopoly is not at all harsh guys.. Theoretically max it costs 7 points (25-18) in every second race that's all. Vettel will still command front row in second place of starting grid for setting best time in qual. This will end monopoly in f1 for good. But all people here against it is not a good sign
It might not necessarily end a front row monopoly. When the pole sitter gets demoted then you could have the same driver regularly qualifying 2nd who would end up always being frst. Surely this would be just as boring as the same driver always qualifying on pole?
If you're a true F1 fan surely you can just sit back and enjoy a driver and a team performing at a very high level and raising the bar for everyone else.

Sure, let's kill them and give the front row to the same old, same boring teams. Long live Red Bull, please, this championship is so much more interesting with them.
