We're at the point now where you can buy a road car that has both a higher top speed and accelerates faster than an F1 car. Sure they are no match under braking or cornering but still..

I understand the safety concerns but are we saying that F1 cars will never get any faster than they are at the moment? Where will the sport be in 10 or 20 years time? Surely they cant just cap performance at current levels, not indefinitely.

Pressure suits do nothing to help at high G's, pressure suits are only used in very high altitude flying planes where the plane does not have its own pressurised cabin and what not.
