20 years ago we had unlimited testing, and teams like Gibsons and HRT won everything, restrictions have been put in place to try to level the playing field. Probably only HRT (through TWR), FPR (through Prodrive) and Penske (now) have ever really had the resources to do any of this sort of testing, so it is really a non-issue. |

We've had domination with the current choked rules as is too (just look at 2012) Motor Racing is not supposed to be fair, the best should always win. |

It is the team and driver doing the best job that should have the advantage and win in a controlled series environment. Sometimes that means domination by one team/driver but as you say, that is part of motor racing. |

If anything, things could probably be a tad tighter in terms of control parts.
Front uprights for instance, seem to be a place where teams are spending a lot of time and money. |
