That looks interesting. Looks like they're trying to make it stay for a long time with spec rules, minus the weight-penalty for winners.

I figure they’d budget for that solution if there was to be an actual series.

There was a round at the Portland International Raceway this year, yes.

I guess there's at least one raceway which is comfortable with the potential for battery fires.

Formula 2 is like that. Everyone gets the same car.

Or the end of life of the average Altima.

Is there a car that has a worse assumed reputation of the owner?
