I think there should be more league options. This would help leagues be different from each other and maybe make it easier for new leagues to gain popularity.
Examples
Boost- can be set at 0x, 0.5x, 1x, or 2x
DRS- can be set at 0x, 0.5x, 1x, or 2x
Clean air factor- effects how much time you lose from being behind someone. 
Cautions- can be set to never, rarely, normal, or often.
Point system- can choose how many points each position gets, with possibly an option for a playoffs.

As far as I know, we do have the clean-air-factor, but for the lead car mostly...I think.

I may be interesting on the point breakdown as long as it has no negative effect on DP distribution.

We have a 2 tyre rule and a boost ban in our league, these two changes really work

And how do you stop boost from managers not online ?

These are all good ideas. We need some way to deal with the peloton problem of drs trains and boost being the only strategy that matters. 
Make it so the clean air bonus is real and not a net handicap as three or four cars whistle past every lap by drs.
The race resembles a bike road race on a flat stage in so many ways with a peloton and a bunch sprint. I've never seen that sort of finish in forty years of watching F1.

The rule isn't perfect and having non-attendees boosting is annoying but it can't be helped, luckily its a competitive division so if you don't attend, you probably won't be very high up in the race so boosting after the ban isn't likely to change anything

Another addition could be refueling yes/no. Along with the clean air factor there could also be a slipstream factor.

Got another one- starting cars or max stats for cars.

Hi Richard

To a certain extent it's already possible to limit starting design. The league in which I compete with my active account has a rule where all teams quit the league during the break between seasons and then re-join with a L1 CD.

Obviously it depends on the number of races in the previous season, but as an example, for a previous season of 15 races all teams begin the season with 8dp in a standard attribute, 11 in CD strength and 4 in CD weakness. This means that there is a real variety of development over the season and it is impossible to max everything out. 

A spin-off benefit is that it is much easier to find L1 CDs with a good strength and weakness because new teams discard them as they level up.

We are 9 races into the current season and have had 7 different race winners, so no single team is dominating the league.

This is the 4th season of adopting these rules and it has introduced a whole new mindset into research and development of the cars.

Again, it would be nice and easier to be able to automatically enforce that without the leaving and joining
