Shame this technology is not exciting for spectators.

Its like beating a dead horse, we all know electric cars will have a important part in the future of everyday mobility but its share on motorsport will remain small for decades.

Just like diesel, it was the n°1 choice for every segment on several markets around the world for the last decade and its share on motorsport was insignificant, the only good effort was curiously also a VAG effort in Dakar with the Diesel Touaregs.
