Fans are spectators, and should not be involved in picking who gets an advantage. And this 'attack mode' and things like it, are turning racing into a joke, instead of what it really should be - the best car wins, period.

When are we going to get to the point where fans of a basketball or football game get to vote on which player gets steroids, or meth, for that extra boost?

Maybe I just can't relate to the young generations, but to me, these kinds of things are turning our current reality into a caricature of its former self.

I‘m with you on the fan boost, but I think the attack mode builds in a strategic element to make the race more interesting, like having a pit stop strategy in F1. All drivers get 2 attack modes per race, so it is equal for all, then it comes down to the best driver and the best usage of attack mode, although often it makes no difference anyway since in reality it only provides a marginal advantage even if 225kW sounds like a lot compared to the standard 200kW!
