2013 cars: Back to the future?

Massive amount of power and very little grip is what's been called for, for a long time! Instead they keep decreasing the available power and letting the aero grip increase exponentially!

Missed gear etc would usually cause an overtaking manoeuvre, but with flappy paddle shift seems to be a thing of the past

Feels like April Fools, they wouldn't really do something this good for F1 would they? Although, after a decade plus of just about everyone asking...
