🗣️ 'If you've got the cost cap, I'd almost go the other way, which is: do what you want' McLaren boss Zak Brown thinks F1 should relax its technical rules now a cost cap is in place ⬇️
The introduction of a budget limit from the start of 2021 was driven by a desire to level up the playing field and ensure that the big-spending squads did not have an unfair advantage.
With the system now up and running, Brown reckons some thought should be given to unleashing more innovation in the technical rules.He suggests that, with there being no danger of a spending war erupting, F1 chiefs should not be so strict with other regulations.“If you've got the cost cap, I'd almost go the other way, which is: do what you want. If you want to have six wheels, have six wheels. But this is how much you have to spend.
Brown believes that giving team more freedom to look at left field ideas would help drive new innovations in the series, and ensure the cars looked different.“I think if you've got a cost cap, then there should actually be some more technical freedom within the cost cap as you are governed."I think then you'd see more innovation and more risk taking. The cars would look even more different.
“At the moment you've got two governances: everything has to look exactly like that, and you cannot spend more than that. Just stop the spend and do what you want.”
