Description

Formula Ones ground-effect car era, introduced in 2022, is ending with the 2025 title race in Abu Dhabi. The regulations aimed to enhance racing, create a more competitive field, and ensure financial stability. Nikolas Tombazis, FIAs single-seaters director, graded the effort as a B or C, acknowledging progress but not complete success. While financial stability has been a major win, improving racing has been mixed. Certain areas of the regulations allowed teams to create outwash, or dirty air, making overtaking more challenging. Tombazis is optimistic about new regulations for next year, aiming to address the dirty air issue and improve racing.
