It seems the age-old problem of dirty air in F1 is again having a material effect on the racing.
Red Bull team principal Christian Horner believes F1 has regressed three years due to issues worsening with the current regulations. The ground-effect rules introduced in 2022 aimed to improve overtaking by allowing closer racing, which has had some success, although Red Bull has dominated recent seasons. Despite their success, rivals like McLaren are closing the gap, putting pressure on Red Bull. Horner stated that as cars become more advanced, following in ‘dirty air’ is becoming increasingly difficult, impacting racing. Red Bull is working hard to improve their car performance and stay ahead in the tight championship battle, with a focus on development and optimization.
