Halo device for 2018

Remember those ugly flip-flop shaped device you saw being tested on the cars ,the Halo protection device,well guess what ! FIA have announced that 2018 F1 cars will be fitted with the device. 

                                              OH FUN 



In my opinion it feels like F1 is actually contradicting itself. The  whole point of the changes made to the cars this year was to make them look more aggressive with the wider tyres , wider rear wings, bigger diffusers etc and adding the halo device seems to be a step in the wrong direction.
The halo device was actually supposed to be dropped this year in order to focus on development of the shield or the aeroscreen. But apparently FIA changed its mind. To put it simply , the Halo ruins the aesthetics of an F1 car.
