Hear, hear!  F1 is becoming an Eco-PC joke. Like Rick L., my interest in watching a bunch of fart sounding tractors chase the Mercedes team is waning fast.

It's all part of the asinine cost cutting measures put in place.  I'm sorry, I know the lead engineer for one of the motor suppliers who has withdrawn from F1.  Making an engine last X number or races is much more expensive than replacing them every week.   Changing motor configurations, especially this last joke of V6 turbo hybrid on the heels of small V8 on the heels of KERS on the heels of...  has been unimaginably more expensive than if they had just left the V10's in place.... oh, but then we offend the tree huggers WHO don't F'ing watch racing in the first place!!!!  Then they wonder why teams are going broke???    Yes, Mickey Mouse rules from Mickey Mouse minds at the FIA!!!

Vettel must start from pit lane because they changed their engine.
What is the need for a rule like that?  If the engine is illegal it
would be found during post race inspection & if the engine they earned
the starting spot with can be confirmed legal as well.  Seems like
starting from the pits is just another one of the Mickey Mouse rules
which serve no purpose - unless I'm missing something?
