It sounds hard to implement and will be even harder and more expensive to police, with people analysing the speeds all the time, but it's great to see they're putting some thought into this area.
A safety car for every single crash is a blanket rule that would ruin the sport in my opinion, although I think we'll see more safety cars anyway. The trick is going to be to get whatever vehicle has broken down, off the track asap....so circuits will potentially need more cranes, tractors and lifting gear.
Either way, it'll be interesting to see the outcomes. I hope the 'closed wheel, closed cockpit' debate doesn't raise its ridiculous head in a knee-jerk reaction to a tragedy.
As ever, we're cooking up a storm for the GP, making our own burgers and fries and I think this year we might do some ribs as well for the race on Monday.
Really REALLY hoping Lewis wins the championship. Nobody deserves it more. if Rosberg wins the championship next month having scored way less wins than Lewis but with a double-points victory in the final race, it will be confirmation at last that the combination of Jean Todt and Bernie Ecclestone are done for.
Also looking forward to hearing Jenson confirm as a McLaren driver next year - fingers crossed.

The Virtual Safety car sounds like a great idea. but the lead car should have a slower lap time if they want them to catch up for a restart in a group. But than I suppose in that case the safety car would be deployed.
