The ban on refuelling is a good idea I think.

Hopefully, this will force manufacturers to maximise on engine efficiency.

TBH, I think that running the cars on hydrogen would be a fantastic idea.

If it means overtaking, then bring it on.

I'd settle for almost any rule change that'll see overtaking return.

How?

No refuelling will be good, but I hope it doesn't turn into them doing economy runs.

Dave, I think it was a joke relating to Ferrari's refuelling difficulties this year
