especially since KERS is considered by some to be a "green" Tech yet it creates more bio hazardous waste than anything else in all of F1...

with the teams already have spent millions on making it work it would be a bigger mistake to scrap it totaly. It would be like making the V10's last two race weekends and the next year switching to V8's.

until they bring back turbos the FIA will still have some kind of "push to pass" in one form or another.

"Terrible to say this I suppose, but apart from the fact that Hitler got taken away and persuaded to do things that I have no idea whether he wanted to do or not, he was in the way that he could command a lot of people able to get things done."-

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.
