Formula One is transitioning to sustainable fuels next year. Australia could manufacture them and make billions of dollars -- if it doesn't miss the opportunity.

Could the fuel powering F1 next season also run your car? | The Business | ABC NEWS

        Yet there’s still a league that burns fuel.

        Formula E hasn’t replaced Formula 1 sadly.

          because people want noise, not silent slot cars

          Ultra-noisy engines would likely be a big hit with fans, who have long complained that the current turbo hybrids are not as loud as the previous generations of cars.

      Which is extra weird since they already use systems that store and release electricity to add power via an extra electric motor https://www.makeuseof.com/how-the-kers-system-in-f1-works/
