    Oh nothing. The FIA has actually made promises to open up battery development back during the Gen-2 cars. Manufacturers and fans are still waiting though.

    They can’t even really claim it’s something that would financially affect the teams, since the batteries and powertrains aren’t made in-house. They’re made by Maserati, Porsche, and Mercedes.

      Maybe they don’t want Chinese manufacturers showing everyone that they are 20 years ahead on battery technology that everyone else.
