F1’s active aero plans for 2026 could include the idea of handicapping the car performance of race leaders to help prevent runaway wins. Here's what F1’s outgoing managing director of motorsport Ross Brawn said ⬇️
Grand prix racing’s chiefs have openly been looking at introducing active aero from the start of the next rules era from 2026.
This would most likely be as a means for it to be used as an effective replacement for DRS in helping boost the performance of chasing cars - through either less wing on the straights or even more in the corners. “One of the big things about the 2026 car is whether we have active aerodynamics,” said Brawn. “I think that’s an efficiency step which is very appealing.
This active aero idea, what could be termed ‘reverse DRS’ in reducing aerodynamic performance for a car, would need carefully evaluating before being implemented.
