Oh, yes, he does have a point about KERS, and I am against the concept of passing measures. But if F1 drivers in the past have been able to deal with changing gear manually, those of today ought to be able to operate a moveable rear wing safely.

I don't think that's a fair comparison. Modern F1 cars are much more sophisticated today. The device that drivers use to maneuver their cars is no longer just a steering wheel, but a hub of other components and switches as well.

I bet Mark Webber was probably distracted at Valencia. How did he manage to slam into Kovy? I think he was tinkering with some gadgetry and lost his focus; then we saw a pretty horrific crash.
