Wolff is raging (whats new) that he doesn't want to wait until 2026 to catch RB.
As usual Wolff hasn't factored in MAX but it can be understood that he's possibly having psycho therapy in private to imagine he's not there.
More smashed boss headphones coming up on the horizon but it must have been noticed he's still wearing them after bose withdrew the contract for Merc after the season ended at '21 Abu Dhabi when he destroyed a pair before watched world wide, a small detail so how come Merc are still using them.
Here he is nearly smashing another pair but instead takes it out on some desks.

The second one is with LEW forgetting that the DRS section is coming up, panics and drives into the back of MAX.

These DtS series are worth every penny my friend just to see the slow progression to extinction for the wolf man.

Go through the whole tape it much worse that that. Not even addressing the narrow tires and other physical changes.

When you start looking at the changes to the energy recovery system on top of the lower ICE horse power the picture is not rosy. The limits on kWh used continuously is very disappointing. I don't see these changes as one that high light driver talent, more energy utilization. I really wonder what these folks are thinking. I suspect the the World Economic forum has their dirty green fingers around the necks of all the parties involved in Formula One from the venues, Teams and the FIA.

"Urgent attention" needed to avoid F1 2026 rules ruining racing - Horner
As revealed by Autosport earlier, F1 teams have been asking the FIA to conduct a more thorough analysis of the impact of the new 2026 cars and engines amid concerns about how they will perform on track.

There are worries that plans for increased reliance on batteries – with a 50/50 split between combustion engine and electric power production – could backfire and leave cars unable to run flat out around a lap because they cannot produce enough energy.

Alfa Romeo team principal Alessandro Alunni Bravi said the 2026 engine regulations were a good thing for F1, as they had helped bring in the Audi company that is taking over his squad.

Horner said that another issue that needed to be factored into the evaluation of the 2026 rules was the extra weight of the batteries, which he has described as "colossal."

"One of the big impacts for 2026 is weight," he said.

"You're looking at pretty much a 30-kilogramme swing, on cars that are already approaching the sort of sportscar type of weight through the cooling."

https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/ur...rner/10489541/

I say "F" Audi. Ask the WEC how much staying power Audi has. As soon as the playing field is level they are gone.

That's nothing new to me . That's what I said all the time ..

2026

50% ICE / 50% EV

500HP / 500HP

Of course , they have to cut weight wherever they can , because the batteries will be like fat heavy pigs .
One of the options is skinny tires !

Horner said : I'm afraid the 2026 car will look like 'Frankenstein.

The FIA's suicide mission !!!

Because of these proposals for '26 that the FIA is wanting I would be the first to support calls for F1 to be separated from the FIA to run itself. It would have to be called something else as FIA would prevent it from continuing under the Formula 1 name and it will be a revelation in motor sport to return to engines that fans call for.
