better, they should never allow traction control in racing! I know those cars are basically impossible to drive, but TC takes driver skill out of it.

Yes they are. The reason they unbanned TC a number of years ago is because they could not enforce the ban. The std ECU's should make it easier to enforce, but I'm sure fans will be able to find perfectly valid explanations for how Ferrari is using TC.
