Formula 1's current ground-effect cars are starting to get as tricky to follow each other as the 2020 and 2021 machines, leading drivers have claimed.
While the Italian Grand Prix featured a number of overtakes and plenty of wheel-to-wheel action to show what is possible with the current generation of cars, there is now some concern about the impact of development directions that teams are taking.
This is why leading drivers believe that F1 needs to lean even more on DRS if there is to be any hope of overtaking at certain venues.said:"In 99% of the tracks I think we're going to need DRS, and we're going to need a powerful DRS, because these cars from the beginning of the year are starting to become a bit like 2021 or 2020 where it is difficult to follow.
"I think the cars are getting more and more efficient and they have more downforce. So, it's harder to follow and then they're more efficient on the straight. "[At Monza] for example, if Carlos, he was putting the car in the middle under braking into Turn 1, it's almost impossible to do something, because if I go for it and he just moves a little bit to the right, there is no space anymore."backed the view that F1 needed to increase the effectiveness of DRS at some venues if the racing was to remain good.
