## Resource

One race into the season and Formula 1 is being criticised from fans and drivers alike over its "flawed" racing and safety fears under new rules. Now, change looks to be imminent, with F1 expected to tweak to its regulations before the third race of the year later this month. Mark Hughes explains the controversy and the likely fix. Plus: Why Mercedes is so far ahead of McLaren when they both have the same engine; are drivers overloaded? And the only rookie on the grid makes an impressive start.
