aerodynamic

Among other subjects discussed at the F1 Commission, it was agreed to revise the 2026 regulations, which feature major changes to both chassis and engines, to increase the cars' expected aerodynamic performance.

New regulations in 2026 see a much more efficient engine and tweaks to the aerodynamics and tyres, which F1 and the sport’s governing body the FIA hope will improve the show yet further.

F1’s rules dictate that aerodynamic components must be “must be rigidly secured and immobile”.

As he pointed out, the new aerodynamics rules for 2026 will be released at the beginning of January, and he does not start work until March.

Whoever wins the constructors' title this year will be able to spend less time researching the rules aerodynamically in the first half of next year than the others.
