    "He will spend his time at the Marrakech event observing proceedings from the FIA stewards' room in race control."

    How it that a "public service"?

    Not really 'public'. On the other hand: it's perhaps wise to show him the other side of the race. From the Steward's PoV. And not the F1 Stewards box; he has a history with those people.

    When he does a 'public service' it will turn out in a media event in favour of MV and Stewards Box is pretty anonymous.

    I've watched a Formula E race, and it does seem rather harsh.

    Pmsl. As long as F1 exists, I’ll never watch Formula E.
    I tried, and I lasted about 10 minutes.

    I’ve watch FE a couple of times as a guest of the virgin team, couldn’t engage either time so consumed rather to much hospitality, one thing is inevitable though, it is going to get much faster

    BMW Andretti team are the new Ferrari though

    Until, as has happened in F1 many times over the years, the FiA become jittery about "excessive speed" and "safety" and look for and find a way to slow down the FE cars. In F1 they have used chicanes, banning of aero devices, banning of ground effects, wood planks etc. Perhaps a 100kg lead plank on the FE cars would work? The Nanny State have nothing on Nanny FiA.
