It's no coincidence, IMHO, that the ugly aero bits started to multiply more quickly once the engine freeze was implemented. Teams poured their resources into windtunnel and CFD programs instead.

I actually believe that if the technical regs were opened out, designers would not have to spend millions ekeing a bit of extra performance with an ugly looking mini aero device, and we could get further back towards clean, good looking racing cars.
