Bottom post of the previous page:

Let's ditch wings altogether and rely on mechanical grip instead, it'll make F1 more exciting because the cars will slide around more and the dirty air will become a non-issue, not to mention higher top speeds with no wings causing drag!

Eh. Nah.

I'd accept some form of ground effects. The tracks are now billiard-table smooth so it wouldn't be a problem like it was in the early-80s.
