Look, I'm not gonna defend Palmer's driving here but it's documentated that it was a sticking brake issue of some sort. He's even DNF'ed on the official classifications with 'Brakes' and this isn't something conjured up out of fat air.

It's probably not his fault, it sounds like he got caught in one of those "filter bubbles" where the Facebook algorithm keeps feeding him misinformation from the mainstream F1 media

Todt isn't a magician. There is a known solution to this problem: underfloor aero. But the teams don't want this for the exact reason that it was originally banned, which is that it's hard to control and regulate. So what we're asking for is a way to make these cars faster that doesn't increase turbulent wake, and that's not something you knock out in an afternoon.

I get that it's a hard problem. We have heard that for years. I think they should stop talking about it until Todt has an actual proposal. Just keep quiet until a proposal is ready.

He's doing some kind of emo silent protest that he cant change helmet designs at every pit stop, with flexable OLED screens all over it with flashing ads and memes by going with a white design with the manditory flag and sponsor bullshit.

I see. In the interest of saving time, here is a synopsis of every F1 over taking debate ever.

“The drivers can’t follow the car in front of them because of all the dirty air from the Aero”
“Easy fix. Ban Wings”
“We like the wings. Let’s put grooves in the tires”
“The grooves in the tires are dumb. Let’s make the tires degrade artificially”
“Push to Pass”
“let’s make little aero gates the drivers can open with their knees”
“None of this is working”
“Easy fix. Ban Wings”
“We like the wings. Let’s make the tires wider”
"Expert X (Currently Ross) will figure it out. Form a committee!"

repeat forever.

If you had being paying attention to this for even one second you would know that Brawn is working to improve overtaking within the current formula, which is a fundamentally different discussion than the one you are bitching about. Every single dang post you make itt is some new twist on oversimplifying a complicated subject so you have some reason to complain about progress not being made instantly.

So evolve it. The dizzle plan has been available since like 2009. Active aero, single plane front and rear wings, of a dimension that wouldnt be a majority of downforce on the car. Full skirted ground effects, active suspension. (and 3000 horsepower)
