The new F1 season is just around the corner with the Australian Grand Prix opening the new campaign – and although the regulations have remained largely the same, some things have changed.
The 2025 F1 season is about to kick off with the Australian Grand Prix next weekend, promising excitement with multiple teams and drivers contending for titles. The close field is a result of the challenging development gains due to aging regulations. New changes for this season include adjustments to flexible wings, stricter supervision of front wings, and the elimination of the fastest lap point. Formula 1 cars will see an increase in minimum weight and the introduction of a cooling vest for extreme heat races. These changes aim to enhance competition and safety in the upcoming season.
