I think its a well documented belief that the upper surface aero is what causes the majority of aero turbulance in of top end single seater series. If you removed the wings all together on an F1 car, then by logic, you would have a car that could follow much closer to one another. Take Formula Ford, no wings and they can follow and race very well. As you move up the single seater ladder the reliance on aero (specifically upper surface aero) makes it harder and harder to follow. By that rationale, if you were to not take off the F1 wings, but instead just shrink them massively, you would have cars that could follow much easier than what we have now.
