Ferrari turns heads in Bahrain testing with a rear wing rotating 270º. The bold aero tweak boosts straight line speed while preserving corner balance. Innovation or gamble, the Scuderia is pushing limits before the season kicks off. #F1 #Ferrari #Bahrain #Aerodynamics #Innovation

Andretti’s car, Ferrari engine, FIA approval—yet Liberty Media/FOM blocks the grid. This isn’t about machines, it’s about Michael Andretti. A sport ruled by “commercial rights” over fairness paints the real Cadillac. #F1 #Andretti #MichaelAndretti #Ferrari #FIA #LibertyMedia #FOM

Dan Towriss calls Cadillac’s F1 project a “national pride”. Yet the British car is built by Andretti in Silverstone, powered by Ferrari, led by a Brit, driven by a Mexican & a Finn. As American as fish & chips or carbonara. #F1 #CadillacF1 #Andretti #Ferrari #Satire #NationalPride

There are many alternative fuels, but only one is renewable, plant-based, capable of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by up to 90% compared to gasoline, and cheaper. Offering high octane ratings and cleaner combustion, ethanol is the only sustainable option. #ethanol #F1 #FIA

Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff acknowledged that the team found a way to gain "a few horsepower" – specifically "a couple, which is more like two and three" – via a technicality in the 2026 power unit regulations regarding compression ratios. #TotoWolff #Mercedes #F1 #FIA

Mercedes-powered teams face a storm at the Australian GP. Compression ratio controversy could hit not only Mercedes but also Alpine, McLaren & Williams. The opening round of F1 may bring disqualification risks and heavy pressure from rivals. #F1 #Formula1 #Mercedes #AustralianGP

Cadillac is Andretti without Andretti. Cadillac F1 car was designed & built by Andretti Global in Silverstone. It's an Andretti car with a Ferrari engine. There is absolutely nothing from GM. Michael Andretti’s team remains the technical backbone. #CadillacF1 #Andretti #Ferrari

Aston Martin AMR26 #AstonMartinF1 #Honda #HondaRacing #F1 #POWEREDByHonda

Behind the scenes, figures like Zak Brown, Toto Wolff, and Flavio Briatore seem eager, hoping the ever-corrupt FIA will ignore the engine and car fraud. #F1 #FIA #Motorsport #Fraud #ZakBrown #TotoWolff #Briatore #Alpine #Mercedes #McLaren

Toto Wolff isn’t responsible for engines. As Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 CEO & team boss, he doesn’t build them—Mercedes-Benz does. In Nov 2025, he sold 15% of his holding to George Kurtz, yet still holds major shares alongside Mercedes-Benz & INEOS. #F1 #Mercedes #Wolff #CrowdStrike

George Russell is already tipped by bookmakers as the 2026 title favorite before the season even starts. Everyone knows Mercedes runs with an illegal engine, set to create another “Hamilton” stacking fake titles until rules change again. #F1 #Mercedes #Russell #2026

Mercedes caught bending F1 rules again: Ola Källenius threatens court if their illegal engines aren’t accepted. Compression ratio hits 18:1 in motion, smashing the 16:1 limit. Rulebook? Mercedes treats it like scrap paper. #Mercedes #Cheating #Motorsport #Scandal #F1 #FIA

Williams finally gets going in F1 2026, but rivals are far ahead. The team lost Santander sponsorship and confirmed Barclays as the new name on the car. A fresh chapter begins, yet the chase for lost ground remains steep. #WilliamsRacing #Williams #Barclays #F1 #Formula1 #FIA

Formula 1 has long lost its essence. Now it’s fuel, tire & energy management, endless rules & penalties. Time to return to pure racing: alcohol-fueled engines, no onboard electronics, no artificial overtakes, tires built to last. #F1 #Motorsport #PureRacing #BringBackTheSpirit

Christian Horner: “La realtà è che fino alla primavera non posso fare nulla comunque per via dei vincoli contrattuali. È lusinghiero essere associato a tutti questi team, dal fondo della griglia fino alla vetta”. (AutoRacer) #ChristianHorner #F1 #FIA
