Would capping spending at $200 million for example, really kill innovation in F1? I seriously doubt it. I know that it would make for a more interesting racing series for everyone. Actually I think that teams would be forced to innovate even more by striving to find ways to make a better car within a certain budget.

Because EU.
They can meet 200M if they hire Chinese and Indian engineers. Renault's POV regarding $$$ and partnerships forged by B teams. https://www.motorsportweek.com/news/id/22016
