    Who cares if the race cars use less fuel. It's a drop in the ocean compared to the trucks, planes and god only knows what else that goes into just transporting the cars to the race track.

Restrict the fuel tank size, heavily and allow (some) experimentation with fuels.

    IMO downforce needs to be reduced to a minimum, bring back reliance on mechanical grip with longer braking distances and the drivers will do the rest.
