  • And you can throw DRS into that too

    Anyone else feeling that DRS is ruining it a bit?
    Overtaking on the straight with that kind of ease is dull and artificial. We want to see driving skill, not aero mechanisms.
    Please F1 do what the fans have been asking for for decades and get rid of the fucking wings.

    I admit, I was completely against DRS at first, I thought it was a fucking sham. But at the end of the day, these cars are massively aero-dependant (a problem that will be sorted out soon I hope) where you needed to be 2 seconds faster than the car in front to pass. DRS has gotten rid of that. If the cars are as fast as each other, they will tussle for a few laps using DRS on each other, but it stops faster cars being trapped behind slower cars (which caused Alonso to lose the championship a few years back when he was stuck behind Petrov at Abu Dhabi). Yes, it's "artificial" but it counteracts the stupid amount of dependancy on aero that modern cars have and allows them to pass as they should.

    I make no apologies for the wall of text, i've had a fuckton to drink and am passed caring.

    FORZA FERRARI!
