The unwanted spring break, that Formula1 was forced due to the crisis, gives the FIA and F1 time to take a thorough look at the regulations. The governing body emphasises that it’s part of an ongoing process, but alongside all the possible short-term adjustments, the question is also emerging of what could be done in a more structural sense towards 2027 and the remaining years under this ruleset.
What is often referred to as the 50-50 split between the internal combustion engine and the electrical components is in practice roughly 53% versus 47%. There are voices in the paddock suggesting the combustion engine might need to become slightly more prominent for the upcoming seasons, although that - and potential ways of doing it - is a concern for later. The first priority is to come up with an overall package from the Miami Grand Prix onwards that most stakeholders - and ideally the fans as well - can live with. Safety is the priority after Suzuka, and qualifying laps must once again be closer to the limit. The challenge for the FIA is finding a solution that ticks all those boxes without creating new problems elsewhere.
The Ferrari's CEO Benedetto Vigna told in a recent interview that the new Ferrari EVs, the Ferrari Luce, can accelerate at such a powerful rate that "sometimes it’s disturbing our brain", so the automaker reached out to experts. The automaker had to reach out to NASA to ensure the EV’s acceleration didn’t disturb the passengers. It also conducted medical studies in addition to working with NASA. According to Vigna, the automaker wanted to find out, "What is the level of acceleration that is disturbing to people?". Too much acceleration isn’t necessarily a good thing, and he added that it just makes you wait "for the time to stop the acceleration". The automaker claimed the EV would make over 986 horsepower and sprint from zero to 62 miles per hour in 2.5 seconds with a top speed of 192 mph. It will have four electric motors and a 122.0-kilowatt-hour battery. It will have independent rear-wheel steering and the active suspension system from the Purosangue and F80. It collaborated with LoveFrom, the creative collective founded by Sir Jony Ive, Apple’s former design chief, to design the cabin.

for sharing with us these fantastic pictures of his Ferrari BBLM #70 that finished 6th overall at Le Mans, on June 19th and 20th 1982. A special thanks to Sam Smith and Bob DeMart for their contribution. It is an immense privilege watching this car with such a great history... there are pages and pages of news... and Jim says "It is a great handling race car, and still amazes me every time I see it and drive it"...
