What to expect from F1's weird 2026 pre-season
Description
We untangle how F1's strange 2026 pre-season will work in the latest edition of The Race F1 Podcast.
Jon Noble and Josh Sutill join Edd Straw to explain what the car reveals and testing can and cannot tell us, and reveal the significance of ‘the bucket of knowledge’.
We run through through the launch events and pick out the ones that might be the most significant and impactful, including F1’s dalliance with the Super Bowl, and explain why the unusual behind-closed-doors Barcelona test upsets the rhythm of this process.
There’s also a look at how pre-season testing will be approached with the new cars, as well as what can be learned from the on-track running.
