Headline might be a bit clickbaity - I thought it was quite interesting from a pov of someone not from outside the circus.

...When we got into the garage, Lewis's car was naked, its insides visible for all to see. I think this was the moment where my respect for the sport as it exists really made itself clear. It is hard to describe what I felt looking at that car. The closest phrase I have at my disposal is the technological sublime.
