I'm aware that the tech to do so is really cool. It doesn't make the racing better though. It's not more exciting, the cars aren't really faster because of it because they're limited in other ways, and it's not really more competitive. What F1 needs is disruption, more options, like too many options that all of them won't be test-able, less standardization. Even the limited sim time is a problem, because there are certainly optimizations left on the table that can't really be found otherwise. What you wind up with is a A-team and a B-team of mostly the same designs. That's booring, and moreso because if the cars really were 100% standardized, at very least it'd be competitive in terms of driver skill. It's why these days, I don't watch much F1, I much prefer the more 'indie' racing leagues where, on any given raceday, anyone can win. The days of F1 being that way are long gone, and, it's not likely to change at-all.
