Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
The races at the start of the season (or was it last season?) were awesome. Dodgy tyres meant loads of loads of stops and made the races really entertaining. I was watching some of them on the f1.com live timings and was glued to the numbers for the whole race because something interesting was always going on. Also, that Silverstone GP might have been scary for the drivers but it was great for the viewer - not knowing when your favourite driver might blow up.
The Red-Bull-driven pussying out on the danger-boots killed the season.
Overtaking is great but pitstops are what give the race a story.
@stickyfiddle is on the right track - I'd also remove some of the engine mapping so teams can't turn their engines down. They should run flat out - if they need to conserve fuel then it's up to the driver to slow down and change their driving style.
My only issue with dodgy tyres is will favour one team over another. This season Red Bull benefited from the mid season change and two of the best drivers - Hamilton and Alonso - went backwards. Had Pirelli not changed the tryres mid-season then Alonso could have won the championship.

Looks like Di Resta will be without a drive next season. Force India won't confirm him and are talking to other drivers.
Sunday's GP should be interesting as heavy rain is being forecast. Hope Webber has a good race as it's his last ever in F1.

Last year was the best season for many years the fact that Vettel still won it as well as this year just shows how good he and the team is . I didnt want to see him win it ..but you cant simply dial out talent with a few regulation changes , if anything I felt they made it easier for him this year after the tyre situation was delt with . The blowouts were pretty interesting compared with how its turned out .Safety first ofcourse .
I think the more complex it is to win the easier it will be for him . Then there are the types of drivers that have more of a white knuckle instinct better reflex behind the wheel like Hamilton who seem to do better when they are allowed to drive freely (flat out) which is more interesting to see from where im sitting , still the strategy IS interesting where it creates surprises but this year its more like a wet blanket over driver talent . Its more about race management now which doest really translate down in a way that the average punter gives a shit about .

More or less .
Alonso went backward , Massa started to improve ...I suppose he was having such a bad spell that improvement was all that could happen .
But yeah the tyre change seemed to suit Vettel not sure about Webber , he has picked up speed tho the last few races .
