The real issue is money......

if the sponsors are to be attracted they have to have large bill boards, hence the large rear wings....

These generate more money than down force so until now they have been preserved.

Reduce then dramatically, as they could do technically and the straight line sppeds would be unaffected or increase.

Bring back slicks to try to get the cornering ability back into the mecanincal grip world not aero.

At least with that there is a chance of over taking happening regularly, not just on the odd occassion.

After that why not have an engine restriction and electronic ban, they are driver aids and are not 'supposed' to be needed in such a contest, becasue it is about the driver after all.

But know the politics of it all some compromise will be reached which benefits the constructors and their sponsors yet leaves the fans unhappy...
