Rather than addressing the issue of tracks that are too tight and twisty resulting in only 1 line, aggressive drivers who push someone off track when their nose is sligthly ahead, and cars that are faster than they used to be when the tracks were designed due to aero advancements, the FIA invents a gimmick like this. I'd rather they restrict the total surface area of front and rear wings to make them less aero-dependent and let the drivers drive. |
I like the DRS because it gives the driver the best of both worlds; downforce in the corners, but less for extra speed on the straights. But I agree, the whole "rules" process is ludricrous. I say let the drivers decide where and when they want to use it, like the KERS. This way you get 2 drivers racing far too deep into the braking zone such that neither makes the turn.
