If I can remember correctly they want to use synthetic fuel.
They are studying it and producing it in some parts of the world but it already seems a dead way to go.

The near future is electric all the big manufacturers are going in this direction.

Electric cars also could be a viable option considering the fact that many manufacturers already are accustomed to making electric cars. But why aren't they already implementing the electric car idea right now? I mean it is proved to be more efficient than fuel powered cars right? Also almost no harm to the environment? Or am I missing something?

The Turkish grand prix is coming up this weekend and it should be another exciting one in Istanbul park.

From the early set of odds for the final race it looks as Max is the favorite to win it there.
Here are the top 3 and race:

They say the change dtge surface for the Turkish GP and it's not as slippery as it was like last year race.
But we could see raining this time also so things can be very interesting for this race.
Max is favorite to win could be for the reason that he has a brand new power Unit and for Hamilton he still running on a high mileage one that can fail him at any point of the GP.
Despite that Hamilton was last year winner while Verstappen was not near the podium I think he was 6th despite being qualified 2nd.
So unless we have a surprise I think Hamilton is more favourite to win this time.

F1 is trying to create a new generation of power units by the year 2025 and wants to achieve 100% sustainable fuel for the engines so that they can hit net zero Carbon usage by 2030. That is a very good initiative in my opinion. Because of these races, a huge amount of fuel is needed for the cars so if they are able to make the fuel 100% sustainable, that would be great. Although in 2022 the cars will have fuel consisting of 10% ethanol and 90% fossil fuel.

Yes, exactly I agree with you. Every country has got its own problems. And If we were to mix racing with politics, that won't be the best of ideas. So maybe only keep it focused on racing only. I haven't seen the tracks in Qatar, but I'm hoping that we should be getting good tracks considering the amount of budget Qatar has for such stuff.

And I have no doubt that they will make an excellent track. In recent years, all new tracks are being built in an interesting but also professional way. For example, in Russia, in addition to Sochi, another highway was built near St. Petersburg. Soon it will be included in the racing calendar. As for Qatar, I think that such areas with such heat even in winter, and without rain at all, are not quite a suitable place, but this is understandably the case is being lobbied by their authorities. Well, and probably right, they also want to see royal races there, and not just camel races

Yes, I also think that the recent tracks made were very good. They are made very professionally and keeping the racers in mind. So I'm very optimistic about the tracks in Qatar. And we all know that Qatar can invest a huge lot into these things, so can surely hope for the investment into the tracks and organizing is a lot, maybe more compared to other countries. Let's just hope we get a nice track and great show of race.

I do like the design they have in Doha. And I can't see why not since it is a major city within Qatar. But it will be at Losail International Circuit which is 22 miles away from this major city.

There were some rumours like Saudi Arabia was thinking of buying F1 completely and they were going to have more races in the region:
https://www.planetf1.com/news/saudi-arabia-linked-formula-1-takeover/
But it turns out that this was not more than just a rumour. I hope that this doesn't happen. Because I believe that this can harm F1 and the sport can lose a lot of spectators too. F1 is beautiful like this. There is not any reason to make changes like this. However, I heard that we are going to have a race in Qatar also. It has filled the space on Nov 19-21. I wonder how it will be.

Them owning the entire F1 is nearly impossible. FIA has rules put in place so it can't be under one. Just like in the soccer league.
It just goes to show you how far oil riches can go. Even if it was just a rumor. Cheesy

I got mixed feelings about this rumor. Is Saudi Arabia buying the whole F1? They do have the budget for that though. I'm actually very excited about the race in Qatar. I heard that it would be held in 2023 after the FIFA World Cup in 2022. The tracks should be very good I'm hoping. But I don't like drastic changes in the upper positions. Because of the way F1 is right now, I kind of like it. Maybe Saudi Arabia might be able to offer more or fund more but I still like the way F1 is right now. Only time will tell if the rumor turns to be true or not.

Apparently Hamilton will have to take a penalty hit in the upcoming remaining races for getting a new power unit.
That is what is making RedBull feeling positive about the drivers Championship. Not only that there have been a reliability problems for the Power Units they have as the penalty that Bottas took for getting a new engine for Sochi was not just to slow down Verstappen it's because there have been an issues with the new engine that they got for him in Monza an for the time being it's unusable unless they make full analysis and see what is wrong with and is it possible to race with it again.
So if they don't find what is wrong with that power unit, getting a new one for Hamilton can be risky for him especially when we also seen the same Power Unit with Williams have issues in last race when they used a new one on latifi car and Russel also had to retire at one time earlier this season with problems with engine.

People are throwing shade at FIA for picking Qatar. I do not know where you are from, but from a foreigner that is looking outside in, Qatar looks like a horrible place to do this, and a horrible place in general. It is said that thousands of people died while working in inhumane conditions for world cup, they are basically using slave workshops that pays just enough to eat for a meal, thousands of people literally dead because of their working conditions. Certainly it may have been swept under rug but even world cup was in danger of getting cancelled before everyone assured nothing bad would happen.
It just feels like that time when Hitler and Nazis organized Olympics, he was a bad person at the time as well and we just didn't know it fully yet, and they had Olympics, where the whole world saw how everything was "alright" there, and then we know what happened. FIA should have considered this move as dangerous from the start.

It's been like that for ages. They are hosting so politics should be kept out of the race.
You could say the same for russia and the way they run things, but everyone has their own point of view.
So let's keep it to racing. Okay?

Dubai is hosting expo 2020 which was held back a year. They are quite similar how they host events with Qatar.

They also have human rights issues there: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2021/10/1/hrw-dubai-expo-2020-attempt-to-shield-uae-rights-abuses
This is just how things are in certain countries and how it has always been.

Ohh, this is one aspect that racing should avoid especially when politics is involved. Despite the proven working conditions where lots of people suffered during the process, the government or certain people should be responsible. But the race itself cannot be cancelled due to the fault of others.

Like what some have mentioned, racing should only focus on racing. No matter what the circumstances may be, politics should be avoided as they do not involve the racers at all.

Every country has its own problems and we alone cannot do shit about that. What about the stuff going on in North Korea? Or what about the USA doing things in the Middle East? If we were to judge the politics, there would be a never-ending list out there. So how about we skip the other stuff and focus on the racing itself? Maybe talk about the goods and bad over the tracks and weather conditions and so on?

We are only one week away from the next race in Istanbul Park, Turkey. This is one of the very special and delightful races in F1 undoubtedly. I didn't like the last race in 2020 too much because the track condition was really poor. It was an extremely hard race for all the drivers in the grid. This time, I heard that the officials are getting the track prepared well for this race. As long as the grip is strong on the track, we will watch a much better race I think. But in case it rains, it would be even a more delightful race for us.

Rain has already shown its play in the very recent race where Lando Norris was almost winning, but the rain got the better of him and Hamilton took the advantage and bagged the 100 race win of his career. Maybe hardly anyone was happy with the track of Turkey last year. This year they have made the tracks better and I would love another rain-drenched race. Hamilton is still my favorite to win this race. I hope Bottas does good in this race.

The Formula 1 World Championship and local organizers announced today, Thursday, that Qatar will host a race for the first time in November as part of a 10-year agreement that begins in 2023 after hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The race, scheduled for November 21, will be in Losail International Circuit under the floodlights in the suburbs of Doha, part of 4 races in the Middle East for the first time in 22 races in the 2021 schedule.
The November 21 race became vacant on the turbulent schedule after the Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka was canceled, among other races canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The race will start at 18:00 local time under floodlights.
The race will not be held in 2022 due to the World Cup, with matches being played in November and December due to the weather, and the location of the next race has not been decided, and it could move to another new circuit unless changes are made in Lusail.

This COVID-19 pandemic has affected every aspect of people's lives including sports events. Every now and then the events are getting canceled or postponed. But it is good news about the race taking place in Qatar. Qatar will be quite busy next year as they are hosting the 2022 FIFA World Cup and after that in 2023, the F1 race will be held. That is some great news for the F1 fans in Qatar.

Now Max is only 2 points behind Hamilton. And both of them are ahead of other pilots by a large margin of almost a hundred points (the next one is kind of like Bottas with 153 points). It will be very interesting to see how this struggle continues.
It is a pity, of course, that the weekend of October 2.3 fell, but we are still looking forward to the race in Turkey.

This year it will be a hard battle between Max and Hamilton. Max is only 2 points behind Hamilton and I'm hoping for an exciting clash up ahead. In the last race, Hamilton won the match and Max finished second, even after starting in the last grid. That is some awesome stuff from him. And Hamilton is the GOAT. He just got the 100th win of his career.
