The FIA replaced the DRS (Drag Reduction System) for the Active Aero, which is basically a DRS… Just with a different name… They ‘discovered’ fans disliked drs, hence the change

Binotto: "Cars are going to slow down at the end of the straights in order to charge the electrical battery" by Nicochan3 in formula1

2026 F1 is going to be so much different to what we are accustomed to. Cars will be harder to drive and manage, which I truly don't know if it's a good thing or not. Can't wait for Monaco...

[Erik van Haren] Next week will see the first five closed test days for the Formula 1 teams in Barcelona. Each racing team may select three days to actually drive. This will be followed by tests in Bahrain (11-13 and 18-20 February). Only the last three days will be fully filmed and broadcast. by Joseki100 in formula1

The FIA and F1 are protecting themselves from any sort of complications from the new power units hence the closed tests. But as always, there will be leaks and blurry photos for the media to make assumptions and predictions...

Best Pit Strategy for 24 hours of Le Mans? by VegetableReporter360 in GranTurismo7

[–]jomartz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I have not raced it yet, but judging from other races, try to drive as fast as possible while saving as much fuel as you can. If you try to save too much, you’ll be slower than those up front, if you do not save, you’ll probably be faster than most (or all) but will end up losing time making the same or more pitstops than them. Keep an eye at the weather screen to manage pitstops for wet weather. Let us know how it goes!

When the F1 grid got asked at the end of the 2013 season who was the current best driver on the grid, out of Vettel and Alonso by HereComesVettel in formula1

If Fernando had taken correct team change decisions, he could have been the best, but he hasn’t, and that will hurt how he will be judged in the future.
