Sochi will be back on the calendar I guess. Let’s see if the drivers who voiced support for Ukraine will have a spine to stand up against that decision if it ever happens.

A large part of the increase in size comes from stricter safety standards. Like the nose has become so much longer because it also acts as a crumple zone.

They are never going to switch to full electric vehicles so the ICE engine stays. Unless they stop racing under FIA. Since FormulaE holds the exclusive license for open wheel EV racing. Also in Gen 4 FE cars the battery alone weighs 300+ kg.

They gonna take out the drivers right. They already put more computer control into the car with the current regs. With the next reg changes they want the computer to control the entire car.

All kidding aside the only realistic way to reduce that much weight is to remove the battery. Everything but the power unit is already carbon fiber.
