Who would like to see F1 go back to basics with slick tyres and no traction control?

Well, that's where things are going...I'm pleased with it, but they need to get rid of a lot more of the electronics as well. Traction control going will make wet races much more indicative of driver skill than in the recent past, but might not be so important in the dry. Slicks will make a big difference to braking performance and corner entry speeds...good news for overtaking.Who would like to see F1 go back to basics with slick tyres and no traction control?
YES! Slicks,V10's,and turbo's.Who would like to see F1 go back to basics with slick tyres and no traction control?
Heck yeah!!! This will show who the real talented drivers are!
Normally I'm all for progress, but F1 was far more fun in the 70s.


Low aerodynamics, big slicks, manual gearchanges, and no electronic gizmos whatsoever. So long as we keep the modern carbon fibre construction and safety gear, that would be great!


Can we have Murray back too?
Me. That would make for exciting racing! While you're at it, can you imagine drivers going back to the old type of gear change (stick shifts)? Now that is a challenge. All those combinations at the speed of 320km/h.


edit:


Nearly forgot, I want V10s back too...
lets wait and see
I'd love to see f1 go back to basics just so boring with all these driver aids nowadays. thank god traction controls going.
Traction controll is out for next season.


As for slick tyres, the FIA are running a test before the new season starts letting teams test slick tyres.


Fingers crossed.
Yes. It will make watching the races more exciting and also a talented driver who makes no mistakes will suceed.
F1 development has reached the point of diminishing marginal returns, so they might as well simplify the cars.
Yes, that would be more challenging. I think without traction control, it will be more competitive and the drivers will have to get used to it.
King Michael is currently testing the new Ferrari and showing Kimi %26amp; Felipe how to control the car, as next year there will be no traction control.


The only drivers confirmed for next year who have driven a F1 car without TC are Rubens %26amp; DC, so it should liven things up a bit.
i would like that with the stick shifts. maybe even lay down oil on the corners for more fun!
That would be really interesting. Especially cars without traction control. I'm not too sure of the tyres. We'll be able to see how drivers take control of their cars once there's no TC to help correct any errors. It'll showcase their skill of car-handling and could provide some entertainment
I might huv this wrong as I'm not a huge racing buff, but I heard that in Nascar, they all have exactly the same machines. This ensures that the skill of the driver and the togertherness of the team will win the race!! Surely that would be fairer.
