Setback for Verstappen: Red Bull Has the Most Powerful Engine, Upgrades Not Allowed

NOS26 August · 20:514 weeks ago

Max Verstappen faces disappointing news as the FIA has determined that Red Bull still produces the best engine in Formula 1, meaning the team cannot make any upgrades to their power unit for now.

The FIA measures engine power three times per season, allowing only less powerful teams to upgrade. The ADUO system assesses only the combustion engine, not the electric component.
