FIA is committed in a perennial struggle to ensure F1 cars to remain cars, and that means banning a lot of things that makes sense only on a F1 track. So downforce is allowed, but a suspension whose entire goal was to take advantage of the kind of downforce that only a F1 car has, is not.

@@DaysofKnight It's the contrary actually. F1 technology can be transferred to normal cars only as long as a certain device that makes sense ony in a F1 track (think for example of the Brabham BT46 "fan car") doesn't become dominant.

It's depressing to think of all the innovation from F1 we could have had that the world will never benefit from because it all gets banned a year or two into its development. It's a shame that they don't revisit past decisions. For example back in the early 90's active suspension could be considered an unfair advantage but these days there is no valid reason to ban it anymore. All teams could implement it easily. Same for ground effect, powertrains (new electric systems). F1 is simultaneously the most advanced motorsport and a dinosaur.

They get their glory for 1 or at most 2 seasons. Then they are banned because now other teams who might research their own innovative technologies now have to put money into that new successful tech of another team. By frequently banning such technologies, every team is even more eager to innovate to be able to surprise their competition with new tech, since they know that not many other teams will be able to utilize it. If anything this increases innovation overall since teams aren't just jumping to that one technology which works best and disregarding all others. The FIA decreases the bar such that more technologies are actually viable.

It's not really all that good a system. Just hysteresis alone would be horrible with this and there are far more problems than that. There are far better ways to do what this does, the only problem is that they are all banned as well. The obvious and far superior way to do it is active suspension. The banning of active suspension made a lot of sense at the time. Only a couple of teams had access to such systems and the cost of developing them made it impossible for any other teams to compete. But it no longer makes sense. The big teams can spend millions developing passive systems to a level the smaller teams can't match but they could all eliminate that by going active. With active if you need to make a significant change to your suspension, you don't need to redesign the whole back half of the car and gearbox, you just need a software update.

TBH I think they binned many advancements like FRIC simply to keep cornering speeds down. Without regulations team would be driving podracers around Spa by now.

Meanwhile over in MotoGP, the riders drag the front brake while going through the corner to change the rake so things turn faster (trail braking). And to mash the front tire to increase the surface patch.

Interesting. Toyota’s KDSS system they put in the 4runner and Land Cruiser does exactly this, but I think only for roll forces.

Why isn't any one looking at drivetrain suspension control . When power is applied the car it moves up or down depending on how much throttle is used but if the the throttle is applied just right you can control ride height and also have dive control ( like launch control applies just the right amount of power for a good launch ).
