Lewis Hamilton has given only a cautious welcome to the plans for the next generation of Formula One cars set to be used in 2026, with the regulations defining a smaller, more agile car but the British driver has praised the effort to make a step forward in the new formula’s environmental considerations.
On Thursday the FIA revealed details of the new regulations set to govern the designs to be used from 2026 onwards, describing the concept behind them as aimed at delivering “nimble” cars. They include making them 30kg lighter, 10cm narrower and 20cm shorter.
