this engine rule and no fueling cause 2 things that i really hate and people is overlooking that.. when they have to use engines longer they try to save the engine in every possible moment.. reduces the pace.. and fuel limit.. same story every possible moment trying to fuel save.. less power, longer braking distances etc.. again lower pace.. its against the racing soul..
I'm with you. I'd like to see the fuel flow limits removed and see what these engines are actually capable of.

But no fuel restrictions, these engines would add another 500-600 hp easily.

And then safety becomes a concern again. With no fuel restrictions, these cars would see crazy top speeds at Mexico and Monza.
