F1's current cap sits at $145 million a season, while MotoGP manufacturer spending is estimated to range from $20 million to $80 million. Ezpeleta stressed it would be "a ceiling, not an obligation to spend that much," aimed at lowering the barrier for new manufacturers to enter. No specific cap figure has been proposed yet.

How long has F1 had a budget cap for?

It's been phased in since around 2021.

If it's not mandatory, rich teams still win out anyway.

Still better than nothing if it actually brings in new manufacturers.

A $20-80 million spread really is too wide.

Honestly a lower cap would probably make racing more interesting to watch.
