Bring Back V8s & Ditch DRS

Should F1 bring back V8 or V10 engines? Has DRS compromised the thrill of overtaking? And do F1 stewards need to be full-time professionals?

This week, DC and EJ offer their visions for improving Formula 1, focusing on both the fan and driver experience. EJ calls for the return of the V8 or V10 engines, arguing that they would restore the raw, visceral sound and power that defined the sport. Meanwhile, DC makes a compelling case for the removal of DRS, suggesting it has diminished the excitement of natural, skillful overtaking. Together, they outline a bold blueprint to elevate F1 to new heights.
