We're all going on a summer holiday
As the announcement comes that we will be seeing at least one more race next year I wonder what can be done about the breaks. I understand that they need a break at some point but is it my imagination or are there more breaks between races this year? Given a choice of more races or more breaks which would you choose?
Well I would love to have more races and fewer gaps but I know that's probably out of the question. But some of the gaps seem to be bad for the sport. We've got a three week gap now which dampens down the excitement. Then we have two races back to back. And then three weeks until the final. Now this year it may well go down to the final. But with big gaps like this there's a chance the last few races wouldn't be noticed.

I'm pretty sure that in the old days (ie, one or two years ago) there was just one summer three week break, and every other race was two weeks apart, except for maybe one back-to-back. Now we've had several back-to-back, and several three week breaks. I think I do prefer the regularity of one every two weeks. Maybe this year was just an accident - trying to schedule around other events, like the world cup?
It also affects the championship, as back-to-back races give the teams no chance to develop their cars, and three week breaks perhaps too much. We're not seeing regular improvements in the title rivals.
