With innovative aero features on its car and engine improvements in the pipeline, Ferrari could end the year as Formula 1's strongest team, writes Mark Hughes. But unexpected regulation changes could strip away the advantages it has built
Ferrari – and all of F1 – is holding back its breath in anticipation of the first phase of the FIA’s ADUO engine equalisation process. Not only is it potentially transformative upon the competitive picture of this season, but it has far-reaching implications for the revised 60/40 PU regulations of 2027 (or ’28). It’s complicated, and it’s tied up in competitive politics.
There’s also likely to be a further regulatory change on the aero side for ’27 – one which potentially negatively impacts Ferrari – and that is playing its part in power unit complications.
