It grabbed my interest because of the uncertainties around the hybrids for next year. It seems the technology is already there to go full electric - with the necessary service vehicles. The FIA could make a bold move sooner rather than later.
That sort of impetus should create big innovations, which seem to be missing at the moment. It’s the cut and thrust of competition that usually creates the paradigm shifts in performance engineering, not blue sky thinking in an ivory tower.
And, of course, it creates a buzz around electric cars. That Skoda excites me more than anything else I’ve seen in the electric car world… apart from maybe the classic car conversions I saw in Amsterdam a couple of years ago.The drivetrain from the Skoda in your choice of 70s or 80s car would be utter sacrilege, but also rather tasty for the future.
