I honestly feel like with the safety precautions and aerodynamics it’ll be tough to shrink the cars. I think the direction F1 needs to go is introducing drivable tracks, meaning less street circuits and more real tracks.
I have the feeling FOM is aiming for the opposite though. All the street circuits bring a certain flair with them, even though the race itself isn’t great. The former is what they’re actually looking for.
Yes: they’re looking for clout, not for racing. It’s becoming a cheap show more and more. I fully expect they’ll go full WWE very soon.
It could be a show, done tastefully. But not from an administration that is pushing a LasVegas street race as the “iconic premier event of the season”.
