A major shift? Certainly. More entertainment? I hope so, even though I've watched F1 when it was boring as crap.

And I agree that the innovations F1 has brought to the regular street car world have been vast. Seamless shifting even on economy cars these days. Turbos galore. There are already turbos being driven my electricity now available for street cars, as well as the harvesting.

But I just see it more as a shift in certain areas, and those areas will benefit from increased innovation. Let's face it, even the super and ultra cars won't ever be using F1 aero on the street, most won't use full carbon brakes, they will all carry more fuel than needed, etc, etc.

Don't get me wrong, I've strongly objected to rules changes in the past as well, thinking it would just make for slower cars. But in the end, the engineers have almost always clawed that speed back through the focus that has been allowed. I expect the new formula to do the same, and hope we will be setting track records again by 2023-2024.
