The message is clear. Use "grub2-install --target=x86_64-efi
--efi-directory=/boot/efi /dev/sda"

You've set Ubuntu to be the default efi binary.
You'd have to run "efibootmgr -o 0002,..." to set Fedora as the default.

efibootmgr -h

Because you're using Ubuntu's grub. So you'd have to boot into Ubuntu
and run "update-grub" in order to add the latest Fedora kernel to the
Ubuntu grub mennu.
