Original: Max Verstappen backs IndyCar-style overtaking system for Formula 1 https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/max-verstappen-cal
Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen has publicly called on the sport to adopt an IndyCar-style overtaking system, arguing it would fix problems with modern Formula 1 racing. The remarks have drawn attention from fans and motorsport media, who are debating whether push-to-pass-style overtaking could work in F1 and what it would mean for the balance between driver skill and car performance.
Why now: A top F1 driver endorsing a format change borrowed from IndyCar is a notable talking point in an ongoing debate about improving racing quality.
