About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges facing Formula 1 as it navigates consumer backlash and the advancements in Formula E's electric racing technology.

As F1 scrambles for a quick fix to their 2026 cars, Formula E's about to throw a party! Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvs It's clear that Formula 1 in 2026 isn't quite sure what it wants to be, after massive consumer backlash and concerns from its own drivers. Meetings are being held to figure out how to pivot away from the 50-50 split in due course, back to more focus on the combustion engine. How long will take take? It depends on the manufacturers like Mercedes, Ferrari and Audi and Honda. On the other side, Formula E is about to release is fourth-generation machine to the world around Paul Ricard. After over a decade of development, THIS is the ultimate electric racing car...and it looks amazing. And oh yes! Its speeds are getting ever closer to F1. I would call this an embarassing moment form Formula One...and maybe a sign of moving away from electrification; so as to have two premium single seater motorsports under FIA governance.
