And it will most likely take some getting used to and will slow the stops down a little, but with all the races ran for the most part under caution, I don't see it as a huge thing. I wish they would do away with the darn yellow flags every few minutes and race.

I agree. The bad part is the teams themselves keep asking for it. Hoping to win by a rain ending, hoping to get cautions so they can pit, etc... Stop that whining crap and race. But then again, when there is nothing you can do to the car to make it better than the others, then you have to have strategy. And that means hoping for cautions.
