I really wish they'd do something like specify a standard body (so that it can be designed for close racing), but tells the teams they can do whatever they want with the engine as long as it is 1 liter in displacement and they use no more than 30 gallons of a standard fuel during a race. (Also, no KERS, MGU-K, or MGU-H.) (Also, no oil burning.) Then if one team dominates, the next season they can introduce a max fuel flow or some other limitation to shake things up.

I disagree. I hate economy runs! What next solar power only?
Go back to V8 - V10 or V-12, naturally aspirated only, 2.0 liters max, no more flappy paddle shifting, stick shift and clutch only, and eliminate the huge front wing, just a spoiler to keep the air from under the car. Eliminate the giant rear wing, just a Gurney flap to keep the car on the ground.
Aerodynamics needs to be much reduced. Yea, they can't take corners at 170 MPH flat, and they will have to drive to the limit of tires. And make the tires work so hard three stops are the minimum stops just for tires.
One of the things that made the last race so boring is the leaders were all nursing worn out tires around and no one except the back markers were pushing at all, just an economy run.
