Me? If they're going to make them do mandatory stops, then might as well let them play with a fuel load with refueling. But that would spoil their efficiency goal, maybe restrict their fuel tank size too then.

Isn't refueling... Dangerous?

Since Hulkenberg is back at Force India for next year, who's losing their spot: Adrian Sutil or Paul di Resta?

Might be both since there are whispers of Perez getting the other seat. I don't think anything is confirmed yet tho.
