The article has a lot more than just looks part ("a private consultation document" apparently has been leaked), but what comes to the fins, "The ACO/FIA document acknowledges that the shark fin is "totally unaesthetic". A reduction in size would be considered if sideways stability could be maintained".
Fuel-flow meters will replace air restrictors, but there will still be max displacements (5000cc mentioned for P1... for turbos and diesels too? Article doesn't say but it mentions that petrol would have 4-6 % larger fuel allocation).
They have realized that privateers can't afford energy recovery systems, so non-hybrid cars will have larger energy/fuel allocations. Also cars will be distinguished between "large ERS" (= Energy Recovery System), "intermediate ERS" and "non-ERS". 2xKERS (front & rear) would be a large one for example. Energy limit could go up to 8 MJ (remember, currently 0.5 MJ).
