One of the Williams cars will miss the Brazilian Grand Prix, Sainz will start from the pit lane

Williams driver Alexander Albon will miss the Brazilian Grand Prix because his car was not repaired after an accident in qualifying. This was reported by the press service of the British team.

Formula 1 qualifying in Sao Paulo was previously postponed from Saturday to Sunday and was held in rainy conditions. Albon crashed his car midway through the third segment but managed to qualify in seventh position. Since there were only a few hours left from the moment of the accident until the start of the race, the team’s mechanics did not have time to repair serious damage to the car. At the same time, Albon’s partner, Argentinean Franco Colapinto, who had an accident in the first segment of qualifying, will be able to go to the start.

Spanish Ferrari driver Carlos Sainz, who crashed his car in the second segment, will start the race from the pit lane due to the replacement of several components of the power plant.

Sunday’s Brazilian Grand Prix race will begin at 18:30 Moscow time.

Three Formula 1 teams filed a lawsuit due to the possible technical advantage of Mercedes and Red Bull

The Ferrari, Audi and Aston Martin teams have filed a joint lawsuit with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) over the advantage that Mercedes and Red Bull may have in the 2026 season under the new technical regulations, The Race reports.

In 2026, Formula 1 will switch to new technical regulations, which provide for a reduction in the fuel compression ratio in power plants from 18:1 to 16:1. This indicator will be monitored off the track.

According to the source, Mercedes and Red Bull have found a way to pass the tests while maintaining the actual race compression ratio at 18:1. This could give teams an advantage of 0.3-0.4 seconds per lap.

— The regulations clearly define the maximum compression ratio and the method for measuring it, based on static conditions at ambient temperature. This procedure remains unchanged despite the reduction in the permissible compression ratio for 2026, the FIA ​​said in a statement.

The FIA ​​does not intend to change the regulations at least until the tests are carried out. Teams are allowed to update their power unit designs every six races of the season.
