I know it is part of the regs to cut downforce, but the new rear wings on all the cars look SOOOOO ugly!!

yep certainly does ,didnt we see a pic of the Williams with that on last year
whats the crack with the Kers system ?
Slick, untreaded tyres will also be reintroduced after 10 years on grooved tyres and teams have the option of employing a kinetic energy recovery system (Kers).
The Kers system, similar to those in hybrid road cars, works by storing energy that would otherwise be wasted as heat during braking and reapplying it during acceleration to provide a boost in power.
This boost is controlled by the driver from a button in the cockpit and it is hoped the burst of acceleration will make overtaking easier.
thats ok provided ALL teams can afford to have it
