Red-Bull-Teamchef Christian Horner warnt, dass die neuen Motoren ab 2026 der Formel 1 die Show stehlen könnten. Doch welche der Kritikpunkte sind berechtigt und welche begründen sich auf fehlerhafte Simulationen? Wir haben bei den Experten nachgefragt und interessante technische Infos bekommen.

Key takeaways:

Gearboxes will have 6 gears instead of 8.

    As far as I understand it it’s actually a bit of a misconception that the size of the current cars is due to safety. Part of it is the size of the hybrid engine and battery, but beyond that the wheelbase is actually artificially lengthened by the teams currently in order to fit more aero on the car. At least that’s what I’ve been told.

      It’s almost purely for aero reasons to make the car faster.

        Yeah I think you’re right, the battery bit is more about the weight. I got it mixed in there since they’re usually brought up together.
