This week James looks into the future and asks what F1’s move to zero emission fuels from 2026 actually means. If the cars are zero emission, you don’t need hybrid technology anymore, so will it open the door for the return of the lighter, great sounding V8 and V10 engines of the past? Or is hybrid tech the only thing keeping the manufacturers in F…
