CFD?

The problem with technology is that it eliminates the need for driver skills and in the case of F1 turned the race into follow the leader. Most folks consider that boring. The Schumacher years were as boring as racing could get.

There is a video of Hamilton using remote control to drive his F1 car. F1 was really only one step away from that, only it wouldn't have been a driver driving, it would have been a computer.
