I think if F1 make all teams use the same rear wing would spice things up. One thing about modern F1 cars are their aerodynamics that's true, but they also make them harder to get passed. Cars running behind them has tons of turbulence they can't get close to the car in front, let alone pass them.
So I think F1 can design a new wing that can create a little more drag and promote some more passing. What iamb thinking of is what CART teams uses when they're racing on superspeedways. I think they're called the Handford device, rear wings with a big vertical panel at the back of it. This vertical panel create drag and thus reduce speed, but it also punches a big hole in the air it create more drafting opportunities for cars behind you and making it easier to pass. Besides, these vertical panel are perfect for more advertisement at the back of the car.
Teams are still allowed to tweak the rest of the cars so it gives them even more challenge.
