Changes for the 2025 season include the removal of the bonus point awarded for setting the fastest lap in a Grand Prix, along with an increase in the requirement of fielding a ‘young driver’ during free practice from once per season to twice.

I would've rather see the fastest lap point open to all drivers and not just the top 10, instead of scrapping it altogether.

At least it would lead to better racing in the back half of the grid.
