Hillclimb and time attack are the last great free for all Motorsports. No limit on displacement, materials, widgets per inch, anything like that Just drive up the fuckin' mountain as fast as you can.

Shame Indy banned it in 1970. a steam turbine ![]() ![]() ![]() \ now mind you, these weren't actually jet propulsion, just a turbin powering the driveshaft, silly to ban them though, they were unreliable af and never won anything despite being fast as hell.

I kind of feel that in terms of engines they should say run any engine you want but it can only produce X amount of carbon emissions over the season and then just see what crazy poo poo people come up with until they find the optimal engine type/solve climate change.

I’ve often thought this was the best solution but our “green” engines right now don’t even have a catalytic converter on them so lmao at this ever going through. Emissions based regs also would’ve cut out the whole oil burning loophole that the fuel flow based ones opened up.

No regulations on the cars, or pits, you don't even have to follow the official tracklines; the drivers do coke before the race.

the tyres aren't pirelli's fault, they literally just did what the FIA and FOM told them. canada 2010 happened and because everyone was caught off guard it produced good racing and everyone jumped to conclusions and went "i know, we need to have pencil eraser tires" and pirelli were obliged to comply the problem is what produced good racing at canada 2010 was that the variables were unpredictable and you can't manufacture that. no one knew what the tires were going to do on the day so it all came down to experience and guesswork. as soon as you say to the teams "here are the tires, here's what their compounds do" they're all going to figure out the optimal strategy instantly and it'll cancel itself out you can't manufacture unpredictability without making it a monkey cheese clowncar series

The red bull driver program has produced 4 WDCs and 5 different race winners in F1 alone. It looks rear end right now because 2 different drivers failed when promoted to the top level, leaving quite the gap. You can't just magic into existence more drivers-in-waiting, and it would be a much worse program if they instead had 'spare' of such that they held under contract and let go due to surplus. It's a better system than waiting for a billionaire to have a failson who played F1 2016 and thought it looked like a fun hobby.

Red Bull is in the same situation Aprilia is in MotoGP. They existed purely as a cheap easy route into the top line sport but now everybody has wised up and realized your career is almost certainly hosed long term if you go with them.

You get one year to prove yourself, and if you don't rise to the meet the challenge the you get discarded. Pierre is never getting another shot on the A team.
