Interesting comment from Martin Brundle about the problems overtaking and the fact it seesm to come from the unsettling effect of the dirty air from the rear of the leading car over the front wing of the car behind. His answer is to allow better under body aerodynamics and remove as many "wings" or part of as possible. Any body have any experience of this.

Remembering the "Turbo era" there was a period when the cars went without at all but the highest downforce circuits. The cars were using very sophisticated skirt systems tho to seal the venturi.
