That's the best way short term to fix the problems is reduce the dependence on the ERS incentive. Granted, I'll still argue that the ACO could've saved themselves some headaches by keeping the 2000mm wide cars, the use of sonic air restrictors and/or reduced reliance on the fuel flow meters, and sticking to their original promise (it seems) of having 2-8mj being equally as competitive and setting bar lower for hybrids (4-6 MJ max for the first rules cycle).

Trying to encourage the factory teams to go all out for the biggest hybrids out of the box got the ball rolling, and it opened the door to the rapid and extremely expensive development/questions on ROI we've seen.
