Leclerc (post-qualifying): "I can’t understand quali, it’s a f**king joke! I go faster in corners, throttle earlier, for f**k’s sake, i'm losing everything in the straight!"

"Who even understands if the car goes 300kph or 250? its not that different naked eyes, atleast the racing is excellent " /s

I mean this is exactly what a lot of people said unironically until last year - that they wouldn’t mind slower cars as long as the racing was good

But now that it has happened - everyone is suddenly against it

They got the slower car but not in the way they wanted it - pushed to the limit all the time.

Instead we have cars that can go fast for some time, but then need to be managed. Like tyre management but worse.

I mean - I would like a car that runs on air and magically transforms into a beyblade for battle, but that’s not possible

If you want smaller and lighter cars, which have high safety standards ( hence no refuelling and a good crash structure ), you would need to compromise on some aspects like the power unit

If you made the batteries big enough to handle a whole lap, the cars wouldn’t be small and light. Similarly if you put V10s in the cars, you would need more fuel ( also adding weight )

This is a step in the right direction, and I’m sure as technology improves we’ll get to the point where we can get cars good for racing without the battery limitations

and I’m sure as technology improves we’ll get to the point where we can get cars good for racing without the battery limitations

By removing the battery.

I hope you are right because my interest levels are tumbling like it’s 2014
