I missed the 15% reduction level on first reading.
A reduction of 15% hardly seems worth the bother.
85% * 350kgf = 297.5 kgf downforce at 200 km/hr for 2020
Why not reduce the downforce down to 250 kgf at 200 km/hr (28% reduction), or even 150 kgf at 200 km/hr (42% reduction)?
[Same goes for the 15hp power reduction (2%). Hardly worth the bother either!]
