I hope you agree that innovation is much more constrained than it was in the 70s to 90s. You can’t do a V8 or V12, the turbo configuration is prescribed, or can’t do all wheel drive or a six wheeler, wing configuration is very much regulated. There certainly is room for improvement but it’s more detail optimization, not the whole concept. Adrian Newley has been complaining for quite a while that for designers F1 is not much fun anymore.

Right, you're comparing against 50 years ago. Yes it was the Wild West back then.
