    I agree overtaking’s too hard. But motorsport can be plenty exciting without overtaking.

      I agree. But the has to be some avenue for possible changes to the racing order. Can’t undercut in races like Singapore or Monaco because tyres take longer to get into the window and because the field is bunched as everyone is going artificially slow. Can’t overcut these days because everybody is going slow and saving tyres.

      Take Monza for example. It is hard to overtake there as well because of the reduced effects of drs and slipstream but the race is never boring because drivers are making a genuine attempt to overtake and all the off track tactics like overcut, undercut are also viable.
