Formula 1 supplier Pirelli says the impact on racing of a potential tyre warmer ban, with it potentially killing off the undercut, will be added factor in the final decision.
Because they banned it on safety grounds (instead of “Renault 100% used this to cheat” grounds), they boxed themselves into a corner on ever bringing it back — there’s still the risk of occasional fire from a few drops of leaked fuel, even with today’s improved fueling apparatus.

I don’t know, I’m sure they’d find a way around it if they really wanted to bring refueling back. Honestly, I’d be in favor.
