The FIA’s 2026 regulations tackle every aspect of F1 car design to create more competitive, safer and sustainable racing. “This marks a defining moment for the Formula One World Championship,” said FIA President Ben Sulayem in a release recently.

“The new regulations are the result of a huge amount of effort and dedication towards strengthening the championship for the next decade and beyond.”

At the heart of the new regulations is the Nimble Car Concept, a wholly new vision for the design of F1 cars that reverses the trend of larger, heavier cars by making them significantly smaller, lighter, and more agile.
