Yeah, I agree that FE racing is far from ideal right now (bordering on terrible). But it's brand new. At the end of the day, and even if F1 can get to carbon neutral or negative, electric is the future for transportation. Manufacturers will demand it.
I would love to see F1 open up the engines to include hybrid, full electric, and hydrogen (@cecil I'd have to look into FE having sole rights to electric racing). I know LeMans has at least 1 or 2 hydrogen entries for their race next year I believe.
Again, I'm thinking 10yrs forward. The next 2 Concordes will be hybrid, after that IMO it will (and can only) be electric.

Quick look and Cecil was right. FE has an exclusive licence with FIA for 25yrs on electric racing, expires 2039. So F1 either needs to buy that out our go unsanctioned.

Could you do Hydrogen in F1? I can't imagine how you could make a pressure vessel safe enough considering impacts.

They're going to run them at Le Mans in 2023/24 I believe (Peugeot and maybe BMW) so I think the tech is already there. Or at least very well developed and being blessed by the FIA.

Would be kinda neat to see open engine/open fuel, only limited by GHG emissions and some crazy level of power output. Something like a total of 1000 bhp and/or xxxxx CO2 emissions combined. If they think they can make a hydrazine booster rocket stick to the track, good on them.
Bring back some of the R&D innovation that got some of the manufacturers into F1 in the first place. Hasn't been anything novel or unique in motorsports since the Delta wing.

Hahah. I started a new job while still working my old one and was a week behind but didn't want to look up a single thing! Literally only looked at the top post of the last page and saw picks so I made mine! Pulling off a 60 hour work week and having the wife want to watch with me was hard! However I didn't get any spoilers so there's that at least.
