To summarize, in 2003 we are only looking at zero-tolerance enforcement, to the letter, of the rules. But that will result in the following:
No telemetry between car and pit.
No spare car.
Cars impounded between qualifying and race.
No traction/launch control (might wait until 2004).
But other, MAJOR rules changes (like standardized brakes, standardized wings, single-engine rules, and requiring manufacturers to supply engines to 'third party' teams) are in the works for the next few years.
I say about time. The cost savings must be made if F1 is to survive. And I predict this will also make for better sport.
