F1 2026 revolution: Domenicali declares ‘form book ripped up’ as new era ignites fierce rivalries

Formula 1 is on the brink of a revolutionary overhaul as the 2026 season promises to shatter the status quo! Stefano Domenicali, the powerhouse behind the wheel at F1 as president and CEO, has boldly proclaimed that the “form book” will be “ripped up” with a sweeping array of new regulations set to redefine the sport. Get ready, because we are entering an era where the very foundations of racing are being shaken to their core!

In an electrifying twist, the 2026 regulations will introduce entirely new chassis and power unit specifications. Say goodbye to the bulky designs of yesteryears! The cars are set to get smaller and a staggering 30 kilograms lighter, a transformation that will not only enhance speed but also allow for greater agility on the track. The introduction of active aerodynamics on both wings means that the beloved Drag Reduction System (DRS) is heading straight to retirement. Buckle up, fans; this is just the beginning!

Domenicali has made it clear: the landscape of F1 racing is about to experience a seismic shift. The ground effect regulations that have been in place since 2022 are being thrown out, paving the way for a fast-paced and fierce development race among teams. “The pecking order will be up in the air,” he warns, projecting an environment where today’s giants may find themselves struggling as newcomers aim for the top. “I’m pretty sure where you will rank in the first race won’t be where you rank at the end of the year,” he added, highlighting the unpredictable nature of this impending transformation.

What’s more, the engines of the future will boast a groundbreaking 50/50 split between electrical and internal combustion power. This advancement in electrification will place energy management at the forefront of performance strategies, as teams scramble to maximize their potential on the track. And let’s not overlook the engines themselves: they will run on fully sustainable biofuels, aligning with global sustainability initiatives and pushing the limits of what’s possible in motorsport.

Even the tires are undergoing a radical redesign! Pirelli’s new compounds will see a reduction of 25 millimeters at the front and 30mm at the rear, gearing up for an exciting new era of grip and performance. As these sweeping changes unfold, the question remains: will the titans of the previous era still dominate, or will new contenders emerge from the chaos?

Domenicali’s excitement is palpable as he anticipates the arrival of Audi and Cadillac into the F1 fold, further intensifying the competition. Plus, fans can rejoice with the introduction of a brand-new venue: the Madring street track in Madrid, set to host the Spanish Grand Prix. And that’s not all; the Portuguese Grand Prix at Portimão will make a triumphant return in 2027. “Many want to be part of our show,” Domenicali declares, as F1 continues to expand its global footprint.

The 2026 season is shaping up to be a thrilling rollercoaster ride, and with the stakes higher than ever, there’s no telling how the competition will play out. Get ready for a breathtaking season of Formula 1 racing where anything can happen, and stay tuned as the most exhilarating chapter in F1 history unfolds right before our eyes!
