If you could change one thing about F1 (and just one thing you anoraks) what would it be and why?

    I think the success of features based on calculated track position - like DRS and the Virtual Safety Car - proves that the time has come for Mario Kart style power-up cubes. Project them onto AR displays in the drivers’ helmets, and show them on the TV feeds.

    • Mushroom allows the driver to cut corners and speed over track limits.
    • Squid ink appears in the field of view of all other drivers’ visors.
    • Verstappen gets blue-shelled and all his power cuts out until he’s stationary!
    • etc.

    Call me crazy, but I think in 10 years time you’ll be looking back on this post as prescient.
