The FIA recently announced a change to Appendix B of the International Sporting Code, and some fans have strong opinions about it.
The highly controversial new rules and regulations of Appendix B were introduced in January. Now, four months later, a change has been enacted. Some fans are very happy about this.
Sounds sensible when you read what's approved. 👏

This is a good thing, yet people will line up to complain...

Other fans find that the rules are still too much for them. They want the FIA to take a step back and stop making so many rules.
What now?! Leave the sport alone!!!!!

Too many rules and regulations. You turn sport into scripted soap opera...

One of the more significant changes that was enacted was the reduction of fines. The orginally fine was 10,000 but now it has been reduced by 5,000, by 50%.
Another change made was that stewards are now able to suspend certain fines and penalties if they see fit.
