🔴 F1 has quietly removed one of the strangest quirks from the 2026 regulations.
• To save battery in certain track sections, drivers had to hold above 98% throttle for a full second to enter "power limited mode." If they lifted off even briefly (e.g. to correct a slide, like Leclerc in China sprint qualifying), the timer reset. This forced them to burn extra energy on corner exit when they reapplied throttle.
• Now, once drivers hit 98% throttle and trigger the pending phase, they automatically enter power limited mode after one second — even if they back off in between. No more resets.
This makes qualifying behaviour more natural, reduces weird energy penalties from small throttle corrections, and should prevent surprise power boosts or shortages.
The change is part of a package of qualifying tweaks agreed before Miami.

@Calvin_N_Hawgs @JDunlap1974 They're booing you but you're right, not a single human being on earth calls those pedal boats.
I'm 35 and that's the first time I've EVER heard the word Pedal Boat, and I presume you and the contestants have never heard it either.
Anyone claiming otherwise is lying.

@Racingnews365c italy will charge all of them withholding tax and press charges apparently except for the Italian based teams and drivers living there. So Expect a Lawson, Arvid, Charles, Hamilton, Gasly and Kimi Grid in Monza.

@alloyt00 @pacific_noble @Mp24Rossi @F1 Thank you. Most haters don't fact check themselves before making idiot statements that are not factual. Like how British media thinks Arvid out qualified Liam in Melbourne, or China Sprint and Quali and only a damaged win in Suzaka.
English

@pacific_noble @Mp24Rossi @F1 Total points scored under the Racing Bulls name to date:
Lawson: 52
Hadjar: 51
Tsunoda: 33
Ricciardo: 12
Lindblad: 4

@22younglew @cytrusf1 Has Ollie Bearman battled or had incidents with any Ferrari driver besides Sainz in the Williams? Lawson and Arvid have both eliminated Red Bulls drivers in Quali and have defended vs the senior team.
English

@cytrusf1 well these are two independent problems; b teams wont make fans drop out however i believe redbull should not have 4 drivers on the grid rather than 2 lik everyone else

@gerry_c_blaney @ashvarro Have you seen an F1 Drivers neck? Even bodybuilders are impressed. lol If you lose 2kg+ in sweat in a 2 hour race then you are an athletic and they train year round to be fit enough.
English

@ashvarro Driving an F1 car does not make an F1 driver an athlete, but every F1 driver must be an athlete in order to drive one of these things competitively.
Once upon a time F1 drivers smoked and did a few pushups once a week. Nowadays they spend half their lives in physical training.

@f1trollofficial They did take some organising GG only F1 is that good.

Hard to believe it's over 2 years since my open heart surgery for an aortic aneurysm. It was something that was discovered in a medical check-up, without any symptoms. I'm forever grateful to the doctors and nurses who looked after me, and to be able to live my life without limitations is truly a blessing 🙏🙏
A fading scar is reminding me of that event everyday when I'm looking at the mirror 👀

@Motorsport The Irony will be Monaco being the best race under the current regs

@lindbladnews I am happy Arvid and Liam can work together to improve the car and the performance. Alpine and Haas have real pace and also got lucky vs Vcarb. But they need to both score if possible. They have scored at each race including the sprint. GG Keep that up.

Arvid on being teammates with Liam:
"We've known each other since the early days of the program, which definitely helps. It's been fun; we get on well, and there are really good vibes in the team. I've enjoyed sharing the garage together. We've gelled well, and together we're helping push the team forward."
"Being able to discuss things openly and give clear feedback to the team makes a big difference."

@yapperlawson 2026 is not a tight as 2025. 1 1/2 tenths would cover P8 to P18

@MattP1Tommy Simply the drivers should use the tools. Not the tools deciding deployment regen. The driver should know the Boost is about to run out or Push to Pass has has 4 secs available.
