In a shocking event turning point, Christian Horner, director of the Red Bull Racing team, revealed a new explosive proposal concerning a recent FIA proposal in the field of Formula 1. The FIA, led by President Mohammed Ben SULAYEM, has advanced a revolutionary proposal aimed at modifying the batteries on batteries in anticipation of major rules planned for 2026.
While the Formula 1 season is getting closer, the landscape of sport is about to experience a tectonic change. With an emphasis on improving the power of batteries in the construction of F1 cars, the scene is ready for a revolution in the world of motorsport.
In the midst of intense discussions on the future of F1 engines, an extraordinary meeting summoned to Bahrain saw a proposal led by Ben Sulayem to reintroduce V10 engines. However, this daring idea was quickly rejected by the manufacturers determined to comply with the established regulations. Not discouraged, the proposal resurfaced during discussions within the F1 commission, Horner illuminating the specificities of the daring suggestion of the FIA.
-Horner revealed that the FIA proposal revolves around the maintenance of current technical specifications while reducing the energy of the batteries during the races. This adjustment aims to introduce a dynamic of “push to pass”, injecting a new level of excitement and strategy in the races. Although the proposal does not change the maximum power of engines, it strategically changes the deployment of energy to improve the global race experience.
The last -minute reflection of the FIA to modify the regulations on the engines sent shock waves through the key players in the industry, including Audi, General Motors and Ford. These manufacturers had entered F1 counting on reduced engine cost insurance. The removal of the engine generator unit-heat (MGU-H) was perceived as a key factor to attract new manufacturers of engines to reach the ranks alongside Ferrari, Red Bull and Mercedes on the F1 grid.
With the landscape of Formula 1 ready for a paradigm shift, the implications of the FIA proposal are high. While the teams are preparing for a season of uncertainty and evolution, the prospect of alternative regulations adds a new layer of intrigue in the fiercely competitive world of motor sport.
