While its a known fact that the Formula 1 cars will be witnessing a major overhaul in 2021 with the new regulations stepping in, we have little idea as to what the cars will look like, until now. A concept vision image of the 2021 Formula 1 car has been leaked across social media giving us a glimpse of what to expect with the new generation offering. The image was leaked ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix this weekend, when F1 Managing Director Ross Brawn was showing it a 'Tech Talk' seminar that had been organised by the race organisers in Singapore on Wednesday, September 12, 2018.

Motorsport is a dangerous as it is, and it's just unreasonably outlandish when a rider or driver chooses to put a rival in the harms with intent. Unfortunately, that's what happened last weekend during the MotoGP San Marino Grand Prix when Moto2 rider Romano Fenati grabbed the brake lever of rival rider Stefano Manzi while doing speeds in excess of 200 kmph. The incident not only sparked outrage from the other teams and riders, but garnered a lot of flak from fans of the sport world over. MotoGP promoters Dorna imposed a two-race ban on Fenati, but the Forward Racing Team already sacked him from the job, and now MV Agusta has now decided to terminate his contract for 2019.
