That is what is being proposed, although it appears some people may have read in to that that it means some form of push to pass type system over and above KERS. What Andrew Benson describes it as is

Quote:
The average proportion of a lap that a driver is able to spend on full throttle to be cut from 70% in 2010 to 50% in 2013;
Less throttle time will be possible with less downforce anyway.

This new rules package looks great (coupled with the 2013 powertrains), my only concern is if the cars are too slow, in which case I suppose with turbos it would be easier to crank up the power. Ideally the FIA would use these principles as a general blueprint for how single seaters should be, I suppose.
