    Just to add to what brake by wire is, or why it is being implemented is partially because there is a weight savings from not having to run heavy brake lines from the pedal box, all the way to the rear of the car. I am sure there are more advantages, like better brake modulation etc. Anyone know of some of the other inherent advantages of by wire systems?

    Massa/Bottas is a much better lineup then Mal. Interesting to see what they do next year.

    Just to comment on your suggestions.
    A/B. Might not work as the majority of racers probably would use most if, not all during the beginning of the race to get an advantage over anyone who doesn’t use it, thus being ahead and making it difficult for racers who didnt use it at the beginning to pass later in the race..
    C/D. Pretty much same situation.
    E. Makes the most sense as the driver could decided to attack or defend with DRS. Could have some pretty interesting strategy.
    My Suggestion: Personally I think the way DRS is currently set up is correct, the problem lies with the execution. DRS was made to assist in passing, not to create “highway DRS passes”. The only thing that really needs to be changed is the power of the DRS, by limiting the size of the DRS flap. Currently the flaps are too large creating to much overspeed on the passing car. If the flap was much smaller, creating only say a 5% increase in speed, we would see alot more competitive wheel to wheel racing I figure.

    Maldonado-Grosjean. Could you imagine the amount of crashes and penlites!
    For me ATM I love the pairing of Hamilton-Rosberg
    Otherwise Bianchi-Kobyashi would be a good one for me.
