The 2026 Formula 1 Regulations are "slower than Formula 2", apparently.

    So yeah, the simulator feedback is "alarming", and the car is having to be driven in such a conservative way, that they end up "slower than the current Formula 2 machinery." Damn.

      ​@@TommoOnCZcamsIf the hybrid era didn't kill F1, it appears the next regs definitely will. It all sounds like a complete shambles.
      How is a driver supposed to make any difference with that level of complex technology being involved !?
      It's bad enough the engine will change (worsen) again, but to couple that with a significant aero complexity at the same time probably means we'll get another ultra-dominant era.
      The most interesting seasons in recent F1 history have been after a long period of convergence where teams can't squeeze much more performance from the regs. It's downright stupid to make another significant change so soon. I'm hoping they use these "findings" to postpone the new regs to 2030

      ​@mvd4436 the idea is to have smaller car. The cars got wider because it's easier to make a wide car faster. The problem is with small cars you can't reduce the weight by enough to counteract the areo, especially because safety will be as important if not more important because it's new territory.
      The engine will also be worst because we are in a time with big shifts. Either everything turn to Electric or we make Eco fuel work so obviously the engines are more or less the first real ones in test as f1 was for year the testarea for new ideas and innovative for street cars.

      Had mercedes not made the decision to use the 2020 chassis in 2021 they would have walked that title. It's worth remembering that they were the only team other than Haas to not introduce any token spend. And even then they were on the podium at virtually every race.

      funniest thing is that by the time McLaren and Ferrari finally do have consistently competitive cars it'll be a season too late, I too thought that 2021 showed that multiple teams had figured out and perfected how to race & develop their cars in the high downforce super dirty air, granted the ground effect regs have brought teams closer to front running pace a whole lot quicker than the old regulations ever did. so it's not all doom and gloom, imo it is a very poorly timed change though, 2025 is gonna be everyone's last bite at the cherry and based on how the RB20 looks right now, the RB21 is going to be a big problem for anyone elses title dreams in 2025.

The electric motors will be activated for the first 2-3 seconds of the straight and then allow the 550hp Ice engine carry the speed. Wait, haven't we've seen that before in the 2015 LMPh1 cars?

      The battery will run out quickly if you deploy 100% of the power all the time, this wont happen. Maximum deployment at different speeds is regulated and teams will develop their own deployment strategies as well. The average power across a race lap will be considerably below the 1000hp peak power but its not a black and white thing where you either have full power or only ICE power.

    My friend is working at Mercedes and told me this at least 10 months ago. Theyve wildly fucked up the de-rate by removing elements of the PU. The addition of Active Aero is a knee-jerk reaction to the insane amount of drag these cars have been found to produce. The rear wing is set to act like a parachute, so coupled with a huge battery depletion at the end of straights, the cars are effectively rubber banding backwards as if they're being artificially slowed

      This directly effects the power unit which will impact the speed. The 2026 V-6 will have 33% less power under the new rules, reducing output to about 560hp (it's around 1000hp now I think). You're relying on a battery for more of your pace than before, which on fast circuits will deplete quicker. So instead of fuel management, it becomes battery management.

    Max Verstappen already expressed his concerns about the regulations 9 months ago. They were talking about the engine, that it had to be 60% conventional PU and 40% electric. Because with 50/50 they would have to lift on the straights or something to recharge the battery. No-one really listened because they would just say it was only to try and get an advantage again with Red Bull. And yes that could be partially true, but personally I don't like the 50/50 split because I don't feel like F1 should be 50% of Formula E...

    First off I like the way you did this video! These new regs are probably going to be negative till we actually get the new car and teams figure out a way to make there version of the 2026 car. I’m not a fan of the 50/50 and would rather have a V8 straight up. The actually V8 would be better for carbon emission then what’s currently being discussed Lol

      I would love a maximum power reg like in wec to let teams choose their own setup. This with the cost cap and all that will make f1 interesting and competitive again. If they did this, it would still be an engineering sport, but with closer racing with the only thing that can change from car to car is the aero efficiency which wec also has a cap on. To make f1 interesting again, they need to get rid of a mandatory engine layout, make the cars smaller for those street circuits, and re-introduce refueling to let the cars be even smaller.

The emissions happen around the car, not in them. Plus lithium farming is brutal for planet and body. The waste lakes created by the plants are mini fallout events. I'd be way more interested in a hydrogen engine angle if they really want to be innovative.

    A problem with the hybrid side of the new power unit is it is going from 160hp max to 470hp max while the deployment regs are staying at 4 megajoules per lap. This means teams will have to either run in a mode that produces less power than the previous v8 cars or run out of deployment halfway through each lap.

    I dont mind the idea that F1 slows down and corners like 130R actually get treated like corners again. That feels like something that will make for more overtaking opportunities in varying locations. However if the active aero systems that should be making the cars faster are messing up the whole system that the drivers only use 60% of the cars potential... thats just stupid.
    As for the 50/50 energy source split, I still hate the direction of electric cars in fundamental principle. The environmental value of the course of the battery lifecycle has minimal benefits over fossil fuels and the raw materials are just as scarce as usable carbon. I would much rather F1 stick with the goals of using synthetic fuels where the energy source itself is near infinite if you use carbin recapture, and if the grid is green the net carbin is near zero, plus the process can be used to make polymer materials making the footprint net negative.

  • @RockSolitude

    Anyone could have seen this inevitability just from reading the regulations. Just quickly, they're:
    > Keeping the same engine but introducing more spec parts
    > Reducing the energy (power) of the fuel so the engines can only make around 500hp and that's an optimistic estimate.
    > Made the engines more expensive and harder to develop (because same engine + more spec parts + less energy from fuel so its much harder to find power and performance)
    > Reducing the fuel capacity to 80L
    > Increasing battery size (and thus weight)
    > Doing nothing else to significantly shave off weight and their current weight target is the weight of the 2021 F1 cars, which were still too heavy
    > Reducing downforce,
    > Mandating a 50/50 power split between ICE and electric and then keeping current arbitrary limits on electric power regen, storage and deployment.
    And because the electric power can only be used at certain times and they've made it so the hybrid system has to put out more energy to meet the 50/50 target than it can recuperate and store, that means F1 cars are going to have 50% of their power missing except for specific moments. Worse still: because the cars can't regen enough energy quick enough, they have to go on fuel burning laps to generate energy, but they can't do that because their fuel tank has been reduced by 20%. It's utter foolishness.

    • @RANDOMZBOSSMAN1

      Yup exactly this but fans were eating up things like turbo lag. Turbo lag was being promoted by the official f1 channel!!!
      You never want that ish in a car it’s a stupid ruleset and anyone who read the rules properly knew the potential issues that were gonna occur how can you weight loss when batteries have worst energy availability than Fuel and you’re relying more on them???
      This is before the issue of even charging up the batteries

    • @charliemaybe
      @charliemaybe Před měsícem +1

      yeah they should make the cars smaller, un cap the charge rate and regen rate, and these cars should be sub 1500 lbs easily instead of the min being almost 1800 lbs. This can be easily done with a more PU heavy setup and using more capacitors instead of batteries for a lighter setup that still allows for a quick power boost like a push to pass instead of relying on the electric to make up a ton of power. They should just open up the PU regs and just put a power cap on the total car. With the fuel limit, this will force manufactures to be creative in their choices for efficiency, power, and weight. With the cost cap and a better min weight limit, this could create a competitive racing field with the engineering side that all fans love. It would also allow for the grid to sound unique like wec
