I don’t miss the noise in F1, but it was definitely odd being at a race weekend where you could hear the 2-seater demonstration car from a mile away, but the F1 sessions were quieter than some of the support series.

We need to stop burning fossil fuels to have a planet to race on, but if we can generate a huge amount of energy in a clean way, then I don’t mind using some of that energy to make a big loud show.

The type of crash the barrier was extended to prevent is still possible, maybe they can build a safe rejoining lane by next year to get the best of both worlds.
