If it's drivers then give them all THE VERY SAME MAKE OF CAR!
If it's not then let teams put whatever design of car they want on the track. (within given safety regulations!)
I hate the mish-mash that we have now, drivers are given credit when it's obvious the car is the reason for the win or exceptional drivers are let down by their team not being able to spend 100mil on a car.

Playing this game will produce the same affect as watching 20 morons drive around in a circle.
