Ross Brawn believes Formula One officials should be open to radical ideas in order to promote the sports popularity.
One such idea is to change the way the grid is decided, with a qualifying race instead of a timed session.
"What we've done is invited lots of stakeholders to give us a view on the race weekend," Brawn said speaking to Sky
"The objectives are, can we make financial improvements, help the teams in terms of their finances, can we help the promoters have a better show and can we get some diversity into the race without making it false.
"If we can get some diversity into the starting grid, which is genuine because it's come from a race, maybe that's worth considering.

"Having an extra race is an impact on the teams, but we need to look at the whole thing."
