I'm kind of on the other side of the debate. By sticking to the dogma of never going fully electric F1 has basically completely lost its road relevance already. Hybrids aren't really the future, they are barely even the present. Formula E exists as the forward looking alternative, so F1 might as well bring back V10s and cater to that audience instead of going for a middle ground that makes nobody happy.
And isn't all the travel and logistics where the real climate impact of F1 is anyway, rather than the cars on track?
Hybrids definitely aren't the future, but regen and optimal usage of battery energy into movement is somewhat applicable at least.
If they lose that aspect it's totally irrelevant from a technology point of view, imo.
And ofcourse the real climate impact is in the logistical circus, but like I said, I find the possible technological innovation an interesting aspect when it comes to racing itself.
Oh don't get me wrong, I love the innovation and the creative engineering. I just personally would enjoy it still even if it had no road relevance.
