Formula 1, also known as the most outclass car of single seater auto racing. Formula one cars are hybrids with an open cockpit and are open wheel single seaters. The framework of this car is made with large carbon-fiber composites, making it light weight and strong in shape. The entire weight of the car is only 733 kg including the driver.
Formula one has been ruling the game of auto racing since the year 1950 and has been making sports headlines but as the technology progresses, can this single seater car be the only monopoly in racing cars or will someone bring a competitor?
Stunning Formula one cars have been ruling the motor sports news for nearly 70 years but the new Formula E in 2016 has brought a tough competition to it. Formula E is a class of auto racing car and is based on electric power. Formula E has altered the way by being more environment friendly and leaner in shape. The only question that arises in the mind of people is that will formula E replace Formula one or both will progress in the market side by side.
A survey was taken place on this behalf and a mixed reaction came from the people. Many people said they are afraid that Formula one will no longer be in demand. If the future advancements are kept in mind then there will be a very low probability of combustion racing cars allowed in certain countries, according to the latest sports news. Therefore, the Formula one has to stay either in its original position or needs to merge with the technology of formula E.
As electric cars emits less air pollution in comparison to hybrid cars, Formula one's hybrid system uses a clean energy system by breaking the emissions of combustion engines. A recruit, Felipe Massa states to sports news channels; that the world is changing at an amazing rate and the need for electric cars is growing eventually. One may see many brands have launched fully electric cars just like formula E for everyday use. Many experts believe and state in various sports articles that the merge of these two cars is considered to be impossible. Even if the formula one car wants to merge into formula E it is not a simple task as people consider it to be.
The two auto racing cars have separate identities but they fall under the same ownership of U.S Billionaire John C Malone. John Eric who happens to be the champion of Formula E, believes that the merging of these bodies is the ultimate answer. He reported to a latest sports news paper that it would probably be one of the best victories that could be won by both the parties. He explained that it would be pretty awesome if half of the season is carried out in Formula one cars and half in formula E. Whereas, Daniel Abt disagreed with this statement and said that these cars are completely opposite just like the north and south pole. Formula E is an electric car similar with an experience of street racing while the formula one has proper circuits and is possibly one of the best cars. This made its way to the media and made sports headlines.
Formula one has been an evolutionary car whereas formula e has brought revolution in the game.
