That old chestnut again...

So what if they do - these journalists always try to make out that it
entirely removes the contribution from the driver. It's utter bo**ocks.
We've had all sorts of technologies before, and do so now: And yet we see
team mates performing differently, and cars leaving the track (as we always
have). Why not go back to cars from the 1950's and be done with it?

The only possible exception to this argument is launch control.

And the only argument really worth considering when discussing technologies
IMHO? Driver's lives.

Much rather see active suspension if it meant they'd remove traction
control.
