Formula 1 teams have agreed to abandon plans to make radical changes to cars for the 2013 season.

Technical chiefs voted to reject a move by governing body the FIA to bring back 'ground-effect' underbody aerodynamics.

The teams want to pursue a less radical package of changes that will keep cars similar to current ones but still reduce drag and cut fuel consumption. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/form...e/13412925.stm

Would have liked to see ground effect come back with skinny wings, you wouldn't need DRS for fake overtaking.

I didn't like the sound (literally) of the 1.6 turbo idea. Personally I don't mind DRS while we're in a position where we still need it.
