The skill is being taken out of F1 with DRS.

The amount of unnatural over taking is quite considerable.

What?? I think its the other way round. The more things that are available to them the more skill they need to use them.

Where's the skill in pushing a button?

That's all Kers is, pushing a button and over taking someone with pure speed rather than ability.

Pushing a button or pressing a pedal it's still down to the skill how you use it.

It's used predominately on the straights with nothing more than a push of a button and a turn of the steering wheel. The defending driver has no other option than being over took.

It may result in more over takes but it's not natural and therefore takes away the integrity of it all.

That's no different to a driver having a more powerful engine.

Exactly, there's no skill, just brute force.

But that's the way racing has always been.
