    Is this going to be improved with the 2026 aero?

    Back in the day they would just go racing, but it did lead to some big crashes. But if the alternative is no racing at all, that’s not right as well. Is there a middle ground?

      they need to make sponge tire so there is no visibility issue and ferrari can be on soft in the back

      On paper yes. Much reduced ground effect but still more than the previous ruleset but don’t get your hopes up. Spa 2021 was the previous ruleset and that was a disaster.

      F1 need to put some sort of beacons on the car, so that for bad visibility the drivers can have a heads up display in the visor and display indicators where the other cars are there. (That tech exists, it’s not sci fi but F1 is too backwards facing.)

          The current situation is that drivers barely see anything even when the race is not red flagged. It would be an objective safety improvement to the status quo.

          Obviously a race series that relies on people looking at pictures for something non-safety critical as track limits will not adopt anything like this.
