They should get rid of DRS and KERS. Conservative tyres, so drivers could really push as hard as they can.

You can strip as much downforce as you like out of the things, the designers will claim it all back with interest within 2 years.


It doesn't work like that, downforce was reduced, for good, several times in F1

Nowadays cars have relatively little downforce, the problem is that it relies too much on it's wings

A GP2 2006 kind of car proved that racing is still allowed when aerodynamics is well balanced

The diffuser is the problem. Go and watch an early 2009 race, and compare how easy it is to pass a McLaren or a Ferrari with any of the 3 DDD cars. Now everyone has a complex diffuser and they cannot follow so easily.

They think they've fixed it for next year, but there'll be another dozen loopholes which undoes the effect.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

in the race, Webber is catching Grosjean and Bottas is going strong for his first points. And Massa and Button are a shame.

Yeah, some of those early 2009 races had great scraps.
