I love that too, but it really adds very little to "racing" part of F1. Not sure if anyone read the Johannson four part works on his ideas, but aero is the beast that must be slayed. So many resources poured into it that takes away from the knifes edge of F1 and forces lots of potential manufacturers out.
Part 1:
https://ca.motorsport.com/f1/news/jo...omics/4374193/ The other parts are at the bottom of the link. I want guys on a knifes edge, with crazy HP.
I agree with Cecil on the tires though...I want everyone to have the same chance of winning based on their car performance. I think the refueling genie is gone and never to come back. If F1 wants to stay relevant they need to continue the efficiency war and that isn't using more gas. They are already pushing 50% efficiency IIRC and that is crazy high with an ICE main PU.
Also...remember the Spanish GP starts tomorrow!! Lots of teams with big upgrades...even Williams sounds optimistic.
And we have a bunch of people with the $10 in for the trophy. Thanks to those that have responded. For those that haven't check your PM and let me know or send the $10.
