2010 Formula 1 Season Guide
-
Hello, I decided to start a thread dedicated for the 2010 Formula 1 Season since no one bothered to...
This year we see a few notable changes to the season such as:
- Refulling during race is abolished
- KERS is scrapped but not banned
- Maximum number of cars increased from 24 to 26. (2009 season had 20 cars compared to 24 for 2010 season)
- New points system (25 points for first, 18 points for second, 15 points for third, 12 points for fourth, 10 points for fifth and all the way down to one for the tenth place.)

Hello, I am new to this forum. May I know how many people actually visit the forum? It seems very quiet here... I hope more people can come and talk about F1 together. Just to mention, the Chinese Grand Prix has just ended and Button is now on the top of the league! Go Jenson! Nice race there at Shanghai... Poor Vettel.
