"The FIA is increasing the cost of filing a protest from €2,000 to €20,000 starting in 2026. If a team is successful, they'll get the money back. However, if the protest fails, the forfeited amount will be deducted from their budget cap – a move to deter frivolous challenges."

I don't know about recently, but a few years ago they sold more Cadillacs in China than in the US.

Was wondering if you were going to track any of these posts down. Most of what the session was about was making sure the systems functioned properly. Not performance focused. Glad to hear the MGU-H gone. 

Thanks Mav.

It’s going to be wild if Honda and MB really found a loop hole in the compression ratio measurement.

That is a big jump from 2000 to 20 000, with that said, 20K is actually peanuts for these teams. 

 

Moving on, this season will be interesting with all the technical changes and I'm hoping to see some new faces on the podium this year.

They're not going to win any aerodynamic awards, races, or championships with that design, but it's got that classic Cadillac look. 😆
