Why doesnt an F1 team research a whole new car design and go from there and the sport will enter a new era.
That's the problem, they can't anymore, there are so many restrictions and limited testing the teams just can't do what they used to. It's a shame, I don't care if a team is a mile ahead of everyone else, if their car has some fancy innovative stuff on it, that's the point of F1, to engineer the future.
It's very rare that we'll get any inventions on a modern F1 car that would trickle down to road cars, which is why they are bringing in the new engines, but I hope they lift the technical limitations and let the engineers go wild.
