The second 2026 meeting of the Formula 1 Commission included the presence of FOM president and CEO Stefano Domenicali. These meetings aim to enhance safety and racing quality under the 2026 F1 regulations’ revamp. The FIA provides a media overview of the discussions without delving into specifics. The 2027 season will see multiple modifications, including expanding test days from three to four and tweaking various components. The additional testing day, potentially held in Bahrain, before the first race in the Middle East in March, becomes crucial amid talks about shifting the internal combustion-to-electric ratio from 50-50 to 60-40. Updates to the Testing of Previous Cars (TPC) rules have been set, limiting testing at circuits hosting next year’s championship races. While alterations to aerodynamic and bodywork components were agreed upon, the detailed changes were not disclosed. All regulatory adjustments must secure approval from the FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC).
