You don't need aero bars to have you arms forward and narrow. It's not particularly safe, but doable for a while.

The aero bar question (whether to have them or not) comes down to how long you will spend drafting and climbing. It's a more interesting decisions in Olympics and triathlons than most road bike racing (the latter it makes no sense because people are drafting as much as possible).

Arms forward and narrow, forearms on handlebar is a banned position of course :)
