should refueling be banned in F1?

Q: Would it be better for the racing? Before 1994 they used to carry the fuel they needed for the race and only changed tyres not sure about 4 stops, id like the possibility if no stops if a driver can protect their tyres refuelling was banned in the early 80's and reintroduced in 1994-

A: Yes, absolutely. Make the drivers cope with a hugely varied fuel load during the race, that would provide an extra dimension which has been missing since the reintroduction of refuelling. It would make teams compromise as to whether the car should be set up to be quick on full tanks, on half-empty tanks or on nearly empty tanks, and make different drivers more competitive at different stages of the race. They used to get by with 195 litre tanks and no refuelling at the end of the turbo era, so it's perfectly possible.
