F1 rules out 'super weekend' trials idea

Formula One chiefs have ruled out the idea of a 'super weekend' format for this season, if the world title is settled early.

Lewis Hamilton is running away with this season's world championship and can secure it as early as this weekend in America, if results go the Mercedes driver's way.

If this does happen, F1 may have a few more races of the season, with ulitmately nothing to play for at the top of the table.

F1 Managing Director Ross Brawn believes that it wouldn't be fair to trial anything as big as the 'super weekend' complex with teams lower down in the table still battling it out for positions.

"There has been some talk recently about if the championship is won then we could experiment at the end of the year, but the season isn't fully settled," Brawn explained to Motorsport.com.
