“less DRS is not the way forwards.”

Back in the day they would overtake with talent and ability, not DRS.
I think this is misleading. As the aero of the cars improved over the years, it made the air following the cars more turbulent, thus making it ever harder to pass. This was a main factor in introducing DRS.
Nowadays we have a DRS train. Back in the day we had the Trulli train. Nothing has really changed.
OK boomer
No kidding…no gadgets make for exciting racing.
…and smaller cars, and less dirty air due to aerodynamic features
Monza overall was a snooze fest. Outside of Max being held up by Ferrari and by the way, it was never a question of if he would pass but when, the rest of the action was horrendous. I’d say this and a few other older and smaller tracks need to go, however with their legacies, that’s unlikely. The next best thing would be more DRS to have in theory battles back and forth throughout the race.
There is no parity in the cars at the front of the field, yet. Because of what they have done with tires there are changes in who is competitive midfield from race to race. Most tracks do not have good overtaking areas to begin with. Interestingly, in the older tracks, Silverstone, Spa, and Monza that isn’t true.
Cover that part of your screen where it says Max Verstappen. Most of the season have been exciting if you ignore the #1 spot.
Imo, in years past, there’s generally THE driver and then the other team with an outside chance. This year, 1 is sealed but 2-5 is pretty much wide open. So give Max and RB their due and then watch the others vye
The third best race of the year apparently https://www.f1hotornot.com/polls/F1/2023/ITA/results
