The new challenge F1 teams face in finalising 2026 car

The Las Vegas Grand Prix this weekend will kick off a three-race run that goes all the way to the end of the 2025 season on 7 December in Abu Dhabi. Over this period, the Formula 1 drivers’ championship will be decided, as well as many positions in the constructors’ standings, which equates to a lot of prize money for the teams.
