Isn't the newer F1 cars "alot" heavier, compared to 10-40 years ago?The older cars are a bit sluggish, relative to modern cars. But if we're talking about the 70's - 90's (and even some of the 2000's) cars, this makes sense as they were typically heavier, the tires were less grippy, and the amount of aero they produced was no where near what modern cars have.
