Vettel: Formula 1 heading in wrong direction with 2026 Power Units
Sebastian Vettel has questioned the direction Formula 1 is taking with its 2026 Power Unit regulations, warning that the sport risks repeating the same mistakes it made in 2014. On paper, the new Formula 1 rules are the most climate-friendly in the sport’s history. Almost 50 percent of the performance will be provided electrically, while the combustion element will run on climate-neutral fuel. That should align with Vettel’s environmental activism, but the four-time World Champion is not convinced. Four-time World […]

Sixty races, and I will also admit that I overcame my scepticism I had of Piastri’s arrival on the scene amid a cavalcade of hype, but he has since then lived up to it. And more so in my book. Now, into […]
