This is a bit weird to me. The FIA changed the rules after an exceptional talent came into F1: Max Verstappen
Now they want to change the rules because an exceptional talent might come in and you want a loophole for that.

This is borderline schizophrenic to me. You change the rules after an exceptional talent, how is that ruling not contradicting your current actions?

The change wasn't to stop another Verstappen, but to force drivers into the FIA ladder.

Well it's simple really... They want American dollars, without American participation.

Herta still makes rookie mistakes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Still I think indycar drivers should receive more license points
