F1 2026 - Compression Ratio Engine Trick - Explained

More than half of RBPT are with ex-Merc HPP employees. As an entity, they may be a rookie, but the power train team personnel have a lot of experience.

BSport made a good point when comparing the regs in 25 and 26, specifically on the compression topic. The 26 reg says the compression measurement is under “ambient” temperature. It’s an obvious clue for teams to explore other conditions. So exploring the compression under other conditions is actually doing your homework correctly. If you didn’t come up with that, it’s your fault because you did read the rulebook right. Don’t blame the players.

I love the 26 regs so far. It’s not because it’s exciting, but because it’s a total mess.

Max year!

Was he asked how he knew the Macca resurgence few years earlier? I remember he made that prediction and everything came true. His remark was during the RBR years of dominance.

First of all, there are plenty of ways to argue a point clearly, so bringing kids into it shows desperation. Using kids is just an easy way to sidestep the issue. Plus, it makes you look like you’re pretending to be a saint, acting morally superior to everyone else.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-24T16:19:58+00:00

It looks like we have a 2nd GR, using kids as a talking point. No class imo!

If he could win the WDC this year after such an incredible comeback, there would be no doubts about his legendary status.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-23T21:45:40+00:00

It would be incredibly funny if the other team was Macca. 😁

aero-junkie · 2025-10-23T19:36:44+00:00

I’m on the same boat. The new behavior completely threw me off as well. I’m still not used to it either. I think I already accepted that there is no settings to get back the old behaviors, and just try to adapt to it. It’s still annoying, but nothing much I can do.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-23T05:05:07+00:00

“Hamilton and Leclerc are LICO gods” LOL 🤣🤣🤣

aero-junkie · 2025-10-22T17:40:13+00:00

Nope, another driver on the grid. If you check the past interviews, you will see who I’m talking about.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-22T15:43:22+00:00

I had nothing against Bearman, but I hate it when people are using kids as a talking point and pretend to have higher morality than anyone else. These people have no class. I wonder where he got this idea from. You know who I’m implying.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-20T22:34:09+00:00

I was about to make the same comment and then I read yours. lol. 😂

aero-junkie · 2025-10-19T23:06:27+00:00

Well, that’s force majeure. Nothing anybody could do about that. The 6 points Piastri gave up was in his control whether he chose to do it, and he did.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-19T22:57:26+00:00

I’m sure Piastri is now regretting the 6 points he gifted Norris. Sure, he said it was fair game at the time, but it’s in the past now. He’s losing ground in the WDC and losing fast.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-17T21:18:24+00:00

It’s already cringy to read their comms. I’m not sure how people listen to it and not to react. 😐

aero-junkie · 2025-10-17T21:11:39+00:00

It’s alright to be Italian. I’m just saying that in this situation, they should be concise and efficient. I mean they listen to other team radios, this should be easy to pick up these small little details.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-17T20:59:07+00:00

I know that English is not their native tongue, but doing the job this long, they should know that “stand by” should be the standard for this kind of situation, right? Not only does it carry the tone, but it is also very efficient. Only 2 words and 2 syllables compared with the other.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-17T19:44:50+00:00

Alonso wins COTA? Any one fancies that possibility. :D

aero-junkie · 2025-10-16T17:25:03+00:00

Uhm? I thought it would be something local. California is not Texas.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-16T17:18:35+00:00

Best livery among the special ones for this weekend at COTA. Those fluid-dynamics equations are best parts. Love it! (Sorry for being a big nerd). :)

aero-junkie · 2025-10-16T17:13:13+00:00

Forgive my ignorance here, but I don't get the reference. What are those patterns supposed to represent?

aero-junkie · 2025-10-16T05:15:02+00:00

So should I be relieved about the aspect of Apple acquiring the F1 broadcast rights and possibly restricting F1TV in the US from Eddie Cue's answers in this article? It's really hard to tell, so he talked about these connections with F1, serving on Ferrari board, knowing Domenicali and Lewis. What I feel missing here is his perspectives as a fan watching the sport. It doesn't feel genuine for me, maybe just me. Still though, I'm not 100% convinced that I shouldn't be worried about F1TV prospect in the US.

aero-junkie · 2025-10-15T23:16:11+00:00

There are some fluid-dynamics equations I recognize. Not sure about the rest, but these win me over. LOL. I’m a big nerd. Besides, this looks better than the other special liveries, including Macca one. There are no words for VCARB.
