“A reported compromise would allow Mercedes-powered teams to race with a non-compliant engine, provided they return to compliance in 2027 — a solution other teams oppose.”

I guess Audi really is making their own engines this year? Good for them going all in.

There was a rumor a while back that Porsche was quietly helping them with the engine. Not sure if it was true or just a click bait YouTube video. They are both owned by Volkswagen tho.

I might be crazy but I think you can go to game stop or Best Buy and buy the digital version and it come with an empty case.

Mercedes is providing engines for half the grid next season, between them and Red Bull powertrains that’s 6 outta 11 teams. They might have to allow it and give Ferrari and Honda some extra development time to catch up. Rumor is this only came to light when an employee switched teams and talked.

If my daddy was a billionaire yall would be bitching about me driving in F1 as well.

If you just pretend to be excited about being there I won’t be hating at all.

Lance acts like his daddy is forcing him to be out there.

I’m all for trying anything that could lead them back to V-10s. I think it’s good for development to give them the space and opportunity to go in different directions. I don’t like BOP or balance of power racing tho. I think it discourages development when the team that builds the fastest car is forced to make it slower so other teams can keep up. That said I do understand that we can’t have one team show up running rocket fuel or something crazy so there has to be regulations. I’m excited to see actual cars on track.

You know the cart mentioned in that article would be an absolute blast to rip around the old top gear test track.

I think the times the races are held helps NASCAR with viewership. Sunday afternoon is different than Sunday at 6 AM.

Two years ago, while speaking to the Spanish site AS, Palou gave more details and explained: “I wouldn’t be at the level of fighting with Max [in F1 with a Red Bull].

“I know this because I do a lot of simulator work with him and we share a lot of data, and he’s a special case.”

McLaren sold one of their 2026 F1 cars at an auction a week or so ago. It sold for over $11 million, won’t be delivered to the buyer until 2028, and driving it will count against McLarens “testing of previous cars” allotted time and will be regulated by the FIA
