Coming off the back of the FIA expressing their desire for future engine developments to be road-relevant, we dive into the debate of whether F1 technology should or shouldn't cater to the broader automotive industry. Have there been successful precedents of F1 tech in road cars? As the auto industry moves towards electrification, how should F1 respond? What role does Formula E play? What's the purpose of "sport"? We go through both sides of the debate so you can come to your own conclusion.
