1m2 vertical board at the rear of each car..............

WT

no. just no.

how about each car has to towe a caravan?

on a serious note, up until about 8/9 years ago the sidepods on F1 cars had more or less vertical outermost bodywork. nowadays, these parts are more more shapely with obviously more aerodynamic efficiency. I wonder if this affects car downforce as well. this could be one area to look at: make the sidepods have vertical outermost parts, if that would help.
