Safnauer plans to create a new team “Formula 1”
Former team manager American engineer Iskmar Safnauer said he plans to create a formula 1 team, F1i reports.
In the current season, Formula 1 is attended by 10 teams. In the season -2026 there will be 11 of them: the entry of the American “Cadillac” into the series has already been announced.
– Over the 28 years of my work in F1 there were 12 teams, and before my arrival, I signed a contract with BAR in the 97th and joined the team in the 98th year – there were even more when the pre -lists were held. So I think that for the 12th team there is a place. And if another team will still appear, I want to be ready to become a successful contender for the place. I work on this. In Formula 1, there is definitely enough space for 12 teams. The 11th teams were given to the “Cadillac” place. At the same time, as far as I know, five applications were submitted to this place, and the FIA (the International Automobile Federation), and then Formula 1, chose the application of Cadillac. So I think that when they open a tender on the 12th team, there will be more applicants than one. Therefore, I want to be sure that my application will be the best among those that will be submitted, – quotes the words of Safnauer F1i.
Safnauer previously led the Alpin and Aston Martin teams.

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.
