"Freeing up of all driver aids" - doesn't sounds too good on the other hand...

Was reading this earlier, is some interesting stuff. Does seem to be a lot of rule changes / updates etc at the moment and lots and lots of chopping and changing including some things that have already been released and now changed again!

Just getting rid of all the barge boards etc could fulfill the teams and FIA's desire for less downforce and more on track action. Its all that crap the teams design to redirect the airflow back to the wings.

It is interesting to see that the current 2.4 litre V8's are a pure wase of money, as the FIA already has plans to repace them. On itself, I agree that Formula 1 should concentrate itself on fuel efficient engines. But I don't really agree with the way the FIA wants to implent this.
And I don't understand why drivers aids will be re-introduced. From that point of view, the future ban on these aids are just a throw away of knowledge. |

Pingguest did specify cornering speeds. The packaging of the V8s helped this, although how much is unclear if you try to factor in the normal development of the car even if it stayed with V10.
On the engine Would the V10 have been that much more powerful than 2005? The rate of progress was slowing. I never thought them too powerful anyway. I do think that the FIA partially acheived what they wanted to, despite resistence of the teams. The current V8s are OK. I wouldn't have done it and if I had a free hand I would change it, but it is so difficult to get changes and it isn't the most outrageous change! |

You guys might think its scary to think what would happen had the 2005 V10's continued. Well what about the 2003 V10's that only had to last the race?

Makes you wonder why some of the teams didn't think of detuning their V10s in previous seasons. |

We seem very keen to keep F1 cars at the top of the technology tree.But even on this forum the drivers take precedence over mere machinery.How many times have we run out of superlatives to describe the drivers,only for the paragraph to be finished off by saying "let's hope that RedBull (or whoever) give him a decent car". |

I'd agree though that i'd rather seeing drivers able to make more of an effect than the engineers, although having both affect the overall outcome should always be part of the game. 70/30 back in the favour of drivers may never happen, and may be too much for some fans, but im sure even an even split would produce some interesting results. |

The old 70/30 split.
