> If not for those regulations, since the track is known to the centimeter, the fastest driver would probably be the lightest one because it would be dead weight. Maybe if everyone took turns setting times. But in a real race, you have to deal with traffic, figure out how to pass, etc. |

Time attack is a type of race. But anyway, if "other racing cars" is the only real variable it's hardly a challenge for autopilot software and the driver may as well be gone. Regulations exist since traditional mainstream audience may not find this show quite as engaging.
Again, the analogy is broken. Automatic transmission, full autopilot, these things would objectively help win the race (if make it boring), but creating good software is a little more involved than "who can type faster".
