Una norma importante verrà introdotta, secondo me troppo tardi. Spiace per la Red Bull, che ci aveva marciato alla grande.

Giro di vite con il nuovo ciclo regolamentare

Nel 2026 la F1 vedrà cambiare le monoposto e le power unit. L’obiettivo è rendere le vetture più leggere e meno voluminose a livello di dimensioni, mentre per quanto concerne i propulsori non ci sarà più la componente MGU-H e le unità motrici saranno alimentate da biocarburanti al 100% (inoltre la componente elettrica dovrà fornire più potenza rispetto a quanto avviene tutt’ora).

Con l’introduzione del budget cap a partire dal 2021 la F1 ha affiancato un regolamento finanziario alla normativa tecnica e a quella sportiva. Il rispetto del tetto di spese è stato al centro di roventi polemiche e la FIA sta cercando di dotarsi di strumenti adatti per evitare che il budget cap venga aggirato troppo facilmente soprattutto da parte delle scuderie di vertice che non vogliono rinunciare ad alcuna risorsa e ad alcun dipendente.

La testata tedesca Auto Motor und Sport ha riportato la grande novità che dal 2026 cambierà radicalmente le carte in tavola per quanto concerne il budget cap. Dal 2026, infatti, ogni dipendente di una scuderia che viene impiegato sulla F1 anche non al 100% risulterà inserito nel budget cap con lo stipendio pieno. Questa decisione è dovuta al fatto che è troppo complicato e cervellotico per i delegati della Federazione districarsi tra organici talvolta a quattro cifre da scandagliare tra dipendenti full-time, part-time e con che percentuale di impiego su progetti legati alla F1. Dal 2026, dunque, i team non potranno più contare su ‘acrobazie’ legate al part-time per abbassare il monte salariale da inserire nel budget cap. Un esempio? Rob Marshall, ex tecnico di spicco della Red Bull passato ora alla McLaren, veniva dichiarato impiegato sulla F1 soltanto per il 10% del suo tempo lavorativo (Red Bull aveva diviso il lavoro di Marshall al 50% sulla Hypercar RB17, al 40% sulla Red Bull PowerTrains e al 10% sulla F1).

F1’S 2026 ACTIVE AERO PLAN SET FOR CHANGE AFTER ALARMING SIMULATOR FINDINGS

Formula 1’s active aero plans for 2026 are set for a revamp following some alarming findings in simulator running of an early car model, Motorsport.com has learned.

As part of the effort to increase car performance to help accommodate the characteristics of the new turbo hybrid engines that feature a 50/50 power split between the internal combustion engine and battery, the new cars are going to have moveable aero.

The idea is that the car’s wings will be able to run in a high-downforce configuration in corners to help deliver grip, before shifting to a low drag configuration on the straights to help boost straightline speed.

One path being explored was for only the rear wing to be moveable, as it could then work easily in conjunction with DRS and would be the least complicated solution.

But it is understood that work has also gone into working out a way for the front wing to be active too, in a way that the elements help stall the aero – thereby reducing downforce and drag.

However, with some teams having recently been evaluating what is known as the baseline ‘Fangio’ car model in simulators to try to understand how this would work, some concerning characteristics emerged.

According to sources, when the rear wing was in its most low-drag configuration and the engine was at full power, the car was almost undriveable – with multiple examples of drivers spinning on straights under acceleration or being unable to take the smallest of curves without the rear stepping out.

 

This was triggered by a shift in aero balance that was estimated to be three times as much as is currently experienced when DRS is open.

One insider even suggested that the only way to prevent the cars spinning was to drive so conservatively that the lap times ended up being slower than current Formula 2 machinery.

 

It is understood that FIA representatives visited team facilities recently to get a better understanding of what is going on and what can be learned from the simulator findings.

And FIA sources have revealed that the conclusion has been reached that the moveable aero plan will not work with how things have been configured so far.

Instead, the FIA has decided that the 2026 aero plan will need to incorporate the front and rear wing working more in conjunction with each other if the cars are going to deliver the performance characteristics hoped for. This will likely require some tweaks to the front wing plan.

 

By ensuring that the two wings work together, it should help reduce the aero balance offset that has been causing trouble in the simulator.

As efforts continue to frame the aerodynamic regulations before the end of June, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner said he welcomed the FIA listening to team concerns about what they were finding out.

He famously warned last year that there was a risk of F1 being left with ‘Frankenstein cars’ because of the way that the chassis rules had to fit around the choice of power unit.

“I think there's been some good progression,” Horner told Motorsport.com. “I think that the FIA have taken on board some of the feedback and some alterations have been made.

“We're waiting for the chassis regulations, which will be a fundamental part of the 2026 package now and how that interacts with these power units.

“The various working groups are working hard on that and it's important that we conclude something in the near future.”

Asked if the simulator findings from teams had been a cause for concern, Horner said: “The rules are the same for everybody at the end of the day.

“So, it's how you apply them and translate them. I don't think we're afraid of whatever the rules will be, as it's the same starting point for everybody.

“When they're finalised, that's when we'll no doubt discover whatever issues there are with the rules, but that's no different to any other regulation change.”

F1 | ANDRETTI CONTINUA AD ASSUMERE: ARRIVA SYMONDS COME CONSULENTE

 

La spinta di Andretti verso la Formula 1 non si è fermata nonostante un primo rifuito da parte degli organizzatori della serie. Dopo Nick Chester, la scuderia americana ha assunto anche Pat Symonds per rafforzare l'organico: l'ingegnere britannico ha avuto un ruolo chiave nella stesura dei regolamenti del 2022 e del prossimo ciclo tecnico.

Speriamo che non sia fatto su misura di qualcuno.

Nel caso, lui un'idea ce l'avrebbe.....

Ma io un 50€ su hulkemberg campione del mondo 2026 li butterei 🙃
