Tech Show: Is Mercedes at risk in F1's development war?

Deskripsi

In the latest episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson discuss F1 2026's intriguing development war.Following Toto Wolff's comment that Mercedes can't respond to McLaren’s Formula 1 resurgence with an urgent upgrade because it hasn’t “got the money”, Edd and Gary ask whether the Silver Arrows has erred in its development strategy and leaving itself open to being out-developed by rivals.There's also talk about McLaren's decision to bring its rotating 'H-wing' to Monza and about how Alpine's recent upgrade package will influence the midfield's own development battle.We also hear the latest news about the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League (A2RL), which races at Imola this coming weekend, and Gary tackles YOUR tech questions, including those on battery safety, TPC testing, and the five-second start procedure delay.If you'd like to ask Gary a tech question, send it to podcasts@the-race.comGet bonus F1 podcasts, extra content and ad-free listening, sign-up to The Race Members' Club on Patreon today.
