Horner says 'urgent attention' is needed to make sure F1's 2026 rule changes do not end up ruining the racing.
, F1 teams have been asking the FIA to conduct a more thorough analysis of the impact of the new 2026 cars and engines amid concerns about how they will perform on track.
"I think that perhaps where we need to pay urgent attention before it's too late is to look at the ratio between combustion power and electrical power," he said at the Austrian Grand Prix. Horner does not believe the matter is complicated to solve, as he suggests a simple five per cent shift in combustion/electric power could be enough to help. However, he says the matter is a critically important one to get right.
"F1 needs to be wheel-to-wheel racing. We can't afford to lose that challenge and have drivers downshifting on the straights to regenerate batteries. However, he agreed that there was scope to find improvements when it came time to fine-tuning the power unit rules alongside the chassis requirements. "The focus on sustainability is crucial for the car manufacturers, and all the stakeholders are working to have a good show and to have a good car.
