Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Formula Ones new hybrid powertrains for 2026 have divided fans, with some praising the closer racing and fresh look, while others lament the slower qualifying speeds. The FIA, initially planning to review the rules after China, has pushed this back to the spring break before Miami, allowing teams more time to fine-tune software and engines. Qualifying has been a particular point of contention, with drivers losing speed noticeably before big braking zones due to battery limits. Experts suggest adjusting battery charging rules and regeneration limits to address these issues, as teams continue to refine their setups for sustainable racing ahead.
