formula what?

when i see the live formula 1 at 8tv today, i somewhat dissapointed. 7 out of 10 teams who are using michelin tyres decided not to race on sunday at the indianapolis motor speedway. the team that runs today are ferrari, jordan and minardi who are using the bridgestone tyres. on race day, they run around the track for warmup and then retire to the pit lane. it’s sad for those who pay for the ticket. they pay a lot of money and came from great length. it’s like no point watching. from what i heard and read from website (to sum up) that it is dangerous to use michelin tyres on the track (indianapolis) and demand a chicane to be built (to slow cars down). anywhoo, it is wise not to race than risk an accident or penalty but it is not fair for the fans, millions across the globe and especially the one who are at the track. this is the crappest race ever. now, people are trying to blame each other. whose fault is this anyway actually?
