to me no it is not. what's your active suspension going to do with wheel-to-wheel contact? if a wheel gets pitched up in the air then you're going to generate lift no matter what.
my vision for the future is active wings with minimal diffuser to negate the risks. active wings can control the attitude of the car relative to the ground in any situation including wheel-to-wheel contact. basically the car's willingness to fly away can be controlled when it gets pitched and returns to earth, or you can remove the lifting force altogether when the car gets upset so it doesn't lift off to begin with.
I had a thought earlier if, and this is a big if, the study I posted was correct and the loss of rear downforce will be the result this year would an active beam wing be able to keep the floor and rear wing flow attached?
Last weekend I drove out from Paradise Valley, AZ to California for my friend's son's first birthday party with a Grand Prix theme. I got there 15 minutes before it ended so all the decorations, including an "All the F1 cars up to 2004" big *** poster that I loaned my friend were all taken down. But at the rec center hall they rented I saw these pictures of some city council members.
