One is braced for a new era following a major overhaul of its regulations. Here, former W Series champion and Sky Sports F1 pundit Jamie Chadwick assesses the 2026 season...Is this the biggest regulation change in recent Formula One history?
Yes, and there are two reasons for that. Firstly, because of the characteristics of the car. They are lighter, smaller and the power unit is now half combustion and half electrical energy, which is very different to anything we have seen before.
But it is the demands on the driver, and how they have to deal with these new cars which is the greatest shift. There have been regulation changes in the past where the philosophy is effectively the same; there are two pedals and a steering wheel and the driver can just jump in. However, they are starting from scratch here with so much to learn.
What will it be like for the drivers then?
