Hass F1 team boss Guenther Steiner has warned Formula One bosses against using 'spec cars' in the future.
So-called 'spec cars' is the approach of making all cars run to essentially the same specification of chassis and engine design. 
This has been used in the US with IndyCar and has been praised for boosting exciting, but Steiner is against it in Formula One.
"I think F1 should not go spec cars," he said to Motorsport.com.
“If F1 goes towards spec cars, I think it is the end of F1.
"It’s the pinnacle of motorsport. Technology is still important,
"As much as we don’t think people are interested, a lot of people are interested in technology, not only in racing. And I think F1 is a good showcase for technology.
"We should not dumb F1 down like IndyCar, because then you have got GP1 and we know where that one is going."
