One free flyer. Rules are written to be 'interpreted'. Will be played.

Would you mind restating your points in grammatically correct sentences?

I figured that might be too much of a challenge for you.

The only rule for tires should read: Cars must have a minimum of four (4) tires and they must be round.

Rules like that turn F1 into even more of a "who can spend the most" competition.
Just to give you an idea of the problem, let me tell you about Formula F
in North America.
Up until quite recently, that was basically the rule for Formula F.
So what you got was that if you wanted to run at the front, you needed
to have a fresh set of tires for qualifying and a fresh set for each
race; four (4) sets of tires for a regular two race weekend...
...at $1,100USD a set. $4,400 a weekend on tires.
Now: just how much do you think a set of F1 tires would cost if you let
each team spend as much as they wanted to get the best tires they could?
To give you an idea of how far they'll go, during the turbo era, when F1 teams could use any fuel they wanted, they produce a fuel that cost more than $400USD (in today's dollars)...
...per LITRE!

So I really don't think a no limits approach to F1 racing is tenable anymore. We've already entered an era where it is unlikely in the
extreme, that any but the richest teams have much of a chance of
winning. Let's not make it worse.

F1 is already pay-to-win.
