Where it’s a free for all on technological innovations speed racer style
>>
Why don't we have a race series which enforces a maximum drag coefficient to eliminate downforce and mandated bicycle tyres so we can make racing actually cool again?

because it would be gay as hell. cattle brands like ferrari would win because they have more money.

The Ackermann steering angel dept at the FIA was a DEI hire.

Get the funding and start your own series instead of begging others

There is unlimited time trial classes and they are not that interesting.

Those turds don't have enough power to actually be cool.
getting into a slide = bog down = big time loss

The cars will become too fast for the tracks. The drivers already experience a lot of g-force, this will only increase leading to control loss either from lack of reaction time, fatigue or straight up passing out. To compete the engineers will throw away safety and endanger drives, again. The cars wont have to care about dirty air left behind them, leading to even less overtaking. The speed may exceed the ability of current tires to survive a race. The budgets will grow out of control leading to fewer and fewer companies willing to participate. Nobody can stop you from making a super wide and long car that will be extra hard to overtake. You can fit a jet engine and literally blow back the competition.
>inb4 how is that a bad thing
Its time grow up, junior. Go watch Can-Am or Wacky Races.

Because of fucking QUEERS (and Jewish lawyers) racing is one of the safest jobs there is. It's far, far safer than driving a full size truck at 5 mph in... japan! with zero other cars on the road. You know why the f1 cars have those retarded halos that block their view dead ahead? You want to fucking know? Because one day, one oh so fateful day, a driver hit a barrier. He looked perfectly fine but was dead. Turns out, the wheel came off his car and conked his noggin in a couple of milliseconds. A freak, one in a gorilli-vigintillion accident. Tragic, of course. They could crash cars into barriers 25 hours a day, 8 days a week, 32 days a month, 13 months a year and it would never happen again. But now cars have that halo. And yes, one day a tiny shard of car will inevitably fly off and impale some poor sod through the visor, and then the cars will be fully enclosed with a camera and a screen. And so-forth.

So no, we can't actually do crazy risky things. We can't go to the moon. We can't have unlimited racing.

The halo doesn't make the racing bad.

Because it would be the most boring racing series ever
>race 1 car A dominates because its better
>race 2 car A dominates because its better
>race 3...
So you'll just end up having 1 team winning every race which is boring as shit to watch.

The alternative is to let the teams do whatever they want on the fly but then the teams with more money will have a massive advantage. Even if you put spending caps in place there's so many work-arounds.

How about development BoP? If you are winning, you don't get to make changes to the car anymore but other teams can to try and catch up.

>>28770081
because people would die like they did back when we still had those.

Also that car you posted is the result of regulations.
