F1 cars now are right up there with the weight of Group C cars back in the day, & have lost that darty, nervous reaction capability of F1 cars for so many years. Yes, times change but when cars get to a point of being visibly "clumsy" or unreactive (not sure that's a word) compared with their forebears, then it feels like times have changed a bit too much.

Cant agree enough here Tourer, clumsy is the word.
There was an interesting Vlog from Harry's garage on JCB's analysis of how electric power is just too heavy and expensive for heavy machinery that has to work for many hours a day and hydrogen powered IC engines are what they anticipate in future.

Tip: watch on 2x speed, but very interesting.
Take note F1. - Ditch the Batteries.
P.S. Clip from engineering explained on Toyota's hydrogen racer.
