I must say Ive seen some pretty sweet battles where Alonso saves up her KERS for straights when someone was trying to pass him for several laps and Alonso would use it all in the DRS areas, pretty cool tactic I felt.

What I really want is them to unrestric the fuel consumption so we can see what these engines are actually capable of, and sound like closer to their rev limit.

A coded message is a coded message. How are they going to know the coded message isn't about fuel consumption?!?!

why would you want MORE aero? You know how much more exciting the racing would be if they actually had less aero?

Because I want faster lap times and I want drivers to pass with a slipstream.

DRS exists because they ****ed up on reducing aero in an effort to making cars pass. It just made cars truly train.

No DRS. Bring back aero, and you get natural passing again. Passing is an art form. Shouldn't be as easy as pushing a button if you're close enough.

Rumor that could turn into reality: Vettel to Ferrari.

My favorite ones are:
- Any message that appears to be coded.
- Start maps related to clutch position, for race start and pit stops.
- Information on clutch maps or settings, e.g. bite point.
- Burn-outs prior to race starts.
- Sector time detail of a competitor and where a competitor is faster or slower.

You know what, why don't they open the radios to the public now? It's not like they can talk about any thing important any more.
