There is no warning for break away with these cars. The older cars had gentle break aways and lots of warning. These high-downforce cars do the opposite. And don't even go into the steering wheel. Most people can't operate the radio buttons and check the menus on their street car. Now let's look at resenting the KERS at speed as HAM did in race conditions and lost 2 Tenths of a second on the lap.

Anyone thinking that it is easy to drive a modern F1 car has zero idea about modern Formula One. Here is a quick comparison.
