2025 F1 news/rumours

[jgonzalesm6]

You made up 2, 1 of which is owned by Merc lol

V10 is not coming back, end off

MBS is putting it on the table. We'll see IF it comes to fruition.

[Greig]

any source for this?

Sure, google it and do better

[Cavallino]

right okay.

I'm guessing you're making the same bogus "road car carryover claim", which is a terrible opinion.

All F1 technology has to be used in road cars?

How many road cars do you know of that have pnuematic valves?

[Cavallino]

they already abandoned the failed MGU-H

So why do you think F1 teams will want to go back to V10?

You can just make up what you think my opinion is, I never gave any opinion. Not sure this qualifies a top quality post from you.....

[Cavallino]

instead of going down this path with the hybrid engines

we could have kept the 4 engines per year, banned pnuematic valves, making the cars slower, but keeping the spectacle.

we could have even imposes fuel efficiency requirements.

here's a great post that will go underrated

[Cavallino]

it's not going to happen tomorrow,

but i could see atleast a v8, e-fuel, with no hybrid.

why do you need batteries when you have e-fuel?

E-Fuel will never happen any time soon, far too expensive to produce.

Hardly anyone is buying EV's. Ford lost over $2 Billion USD on just EV's. Mercedes lost alot of money as well on their EV's(too expensive). Plus EV's are not good in extreme weather when it's cold. The electrical grid could not handle half of the United States population on EV's. California already has brownouts and blackouts and 20% of their population is not on EV's. It would take trillions of dollars to upgrade the electrical grid.

E-fuel prices will come down and the infrastructure is already there with gas-petrol stations.

i mean, that's not my point, and if anything it proves the point i was making. F1 yet again adopting technologies that aren't being used in the real world.

Atleast naturally aspirated V8s are in production.

go V8, no pnuematic valves, with reliability and fuel efficiency requirements. No batteries makes the cars smaller and lighter. Eliminate ceramic brakes to increase braking distances. And let's go motor racing Toto!

Sure, Max, Stroll and Lando will still find a way to crash into you, but everyone else should be fine.

[Brembo]

Especially now that the R Bull car isn't unbeatable as it was for the past 3 yrs + Masi's help for that 2021.

[Brembo]

[racingbradley]

It looks like our competitors have not been resting on their laurels either.
Let's not get over confident that we might be a step ahead.
I think it may be a difficult year for all of the top teams who see a chance of victory
before there is a reset next year and the pecking order may change.

[Brembo]

Charles vs Lewis 2025 will bring WCC points big time ! IF there's no team orders.

Hamilton leaves Toto Wolff's Monaco apartment with his black helmet on as he exits from the complex. The bike, Hamiltons, is a custom MV Agusta F4 RR with Hamiltons initials on the bike. It was a private meeting.
