Where can I see the full results?

Well if it's anything like last year's (not the FOTA survey one), you'll need to part with a few hundred quid and have them sent to you on a USB memory stick. Or wait for F1 Racing to divulge about five different results.

Results:

Favourite driver: Michael Schumacher (19.5%)
Favourite team: Ferrari (30.1%)
Favourite circuit: Monaco (52.0%)

65.7% of people want F1 in High Definition.

61.9% agreed with the bigger points gap between first and second place. 44.9% thought the new points system was good, 40.9% undecided and 14.2% believe it to be bad.

Force India's qualifying and race performance at the Belgian GP was deemed to be the most memorable moment of 2009, with 19.77% of the votes.

How many people wanted more overtaking?

The category that question was part of isn't featured in the results in this month's F1 Racing.

I'd say it's a whole bunch

[King Six]

It's not necessarily overtaking, but it's close racing I think is what's more important. Drivers showing off their overtaking and defensive skills, right now the wake produced is almost an intentional defensive weapon of a modern F1 car and that needs to go.

That's how I see it

But then if the defence has the weapon of the wake, then either you can work to take that away or give the offense its own weapon in retaliation, that's where (useful) KERS/energy boosts etc.. can come into play.


The situation isn't really that complex

Censuring which Grands Prix people want to get rid of

Was Bahrain bankrolling the project or what

What a surprise to see LG, manufacturers of HD TVs and mobile phones, publishing a survey highlighting that fans want F1 in HD TV and on mobile phone apps...

Interesting that in results, they didn't show who is the most popular or favourite driver. Wonder why's that a secret?

So do you think they should have avoided those questions? Anyway it shows there is a demand for HD, but not much interest in Mobile phone apps.

Those would better go watch tennis

I'm slightly disapointed that in almost all questions Strongly Agree or close and very important to me got the most votes. It feels useless that way.
And what is Autosport smoking?

"There is also a big interest in fans becoming part of online communities and using F1 Apps on Mobile Phones."



Ie. The majority is "not at all interested" in those 2 things. Maybe being an F1 journo means you have no clue on how to interpret values from stats or something.

It's actually closer to basketball.

Can someone explain the difference between the weighted and unweighted results?

[Lazarus II]

Can someone explain the difference between the weighted and unweighted results?

It's supposed to remove biases.....or add to them according to your agenda ....and give a more representative answer of the target audience; in this case, F1 fans.

FOTA and F1 Racing sent their call to actions via websites/banners from 2nd February. The resulting sample was
weighted to reflect the Formula One viewing profile (using IFM Sports Marketing Surveys audience data as in the FOTA
2009 study) to achieve a fully representative F1 Fan Survey. This included weighting by country, gender, age and
interest in Formula One.
The answers to the most significant questions are reported in the following pages, showing weighted and unweighted
data.
Questions on fans attitude toward F1 (including media used to follow F1)
Questions on F1 issues (rules, venues, TV coverage, etc)
Questions on FOTA
Questions on sponsors (visibility, attractiveness, etc)
Favourite moment of the 2009 season

Here they obviously used weighting from past survey responses of country, gender, age. and F1 interest.
