Whilst I agree that this issue will become more relevant if and when the second and third placed teams come up a bit closer to Ferrari, I strongly believe that not very much can be done about it in the short term. A major revision of technical regs coudn't be put in place until the following year anyway (and maybe they should be working towards that).
To me this is more about F1 being so consistent these days that a basic difference in car performance just canot be overcome over a whole season. Or rather it can only be overcome by improving your car without the other team improving theirs, which doesn't happen very often.
Now, if you change the money in F1 - for example by awarding points further down the field - you at least begin to give the other teams the means to get faster. And then they can worry about overtaking.
