It would work well with the no refueling rule aswell, turn the boost up but make sure you have enough fuel to finish the race.

something does need to be done about overtaking though.  Can't the rear wing be worked on further to increase drag on the car in front but aid the car behind?  All you get is cars stuck 1.5secs behind in 'dirty air' and unable to do anything about it.

eccelstone wants to introduce short cuts where drivers can use a short cut for overtaking 5 times a race

hmmm i would'nt realy be all up for Turbo's and NOS in forumla one. There has to be a limit for the cars so the drivers can actually handle them, if you turbo them they will end up far to fast and there would be a rediculous amount of accidents and theyd end up back in the days of great drivers killing them selfs and at this day and age thats the last thing F1 should have to deal with. Can you imagine the H&S Risk assessment!?  :lipsrsealed:

and to be honist i wouldnt realy like slip roads so drivers can over take, it would take out the exitement of drivers realy fighting with each other; spa 2008....
