You see, unless there has been a change of good race car dynamics thinking, these tech changes listed above are so unfathomable to think that actually they are actually an act of sabotage.

Grooved tyres were ok in 98, but they made it worse in 99. Really they should have gone back to slicks then. And they should have got rid of body aero like winglets and barge boards a lot sooner
