Oh, and don’t forget sustainable fuel, an overtaking boost button, and some safety upgrades that could change how crashes are handled.In this episode, the Fools break down the biggest rule shake-up since 2014 — from scrapping DRS for X-Mode and Z-Mode, to the insane jump in electric power, to whether 30% less downforce really means better racing.
