Interesting, but not all that surprising, that there don't seem to be any long-term plans to go full electric.

Hydrocarbon fuels will probably be part of our world for a very long time. I wonder if F1 will actually be able to make meaningful advances towards widespread adoption of sustainable fuel.

They legally can’t go full electric until something like 2035, formula e has an exclusivity license for that

That's interesting. I didn't know FE had an exclusivity license, let alone one until 2035.

I might have the year wrong but it’s 2030something
