These cars are big. If we shrink them they can easy shed the weight, in most places. And then speeds will come down. But also, accidents and reliability may become more erratic. For a season or two until they all catch up. Let's do that!
A large part of the increase in size comes from stricter safety standards. Like the nose has become so much longer because it also acts as a crumple zone.
It's all the hybrid green washing bullshit between the driver and the engine. I had someone tell me MGUs in F1 led to hybrid road cars. Then F1 developed a time machine so Toyota could sell a hybrid 17 years before F1 started using them.
