The overtaking working group
Well, it's been a failure hasn't it?
Someone somewhere hasn't allowed them to slash downforce enough to make them more readily overtakeable and able to overtake. Silverstone is a fine circuit, and you don't expect it to be one of the ones most available for overtaking, and I accept this, but the cars can't follow closely enough to make moves that aren't a bit do-or-die. Why oh why are they taking so many years to sort this out? They've been banging on about making the cars better equipped to overtake for so long, at least 10 years in my experience. It's a tad embarrassing when non-motorsport fan friends acknowledge this and say "haven't they been talking about it for ages?" and I have to admit that yes they do. The mention of an 'overtaking working group' is a bit more embarrassing. |
