Have you see the disappeared BBS logo on F1 official website? It's happening recently! Scuderia Ferrari recently signed the BBS wheel rim brand exclusively. Other teams yet to confirmed their specific wheel rim partners.

Thoughts on that?

They are no longer the “Official Wheel Rim Provider of Formula 1”, perhaps?
Not a biggie, but they cannot claim to be something that they no longer are.

https://www.f1technical.net/news/25264 This site even reported on it. They are no longer the sole supplier, so they can no longer be the official rim of F1…

McLaren? Aston Martin?

Can the various 2026 rims be discussed here? They seem quite varied in design!

I'd like to know about these outer rim rings. It makes the cars look like they are running on the cheap doughnut spar found in the boot of an economy car. At least McLaren paints them so they don't look so cheap. Is there some new anti-outwash rule in effect that mandates them? What is the current theory behind getting the hot air flow out of the wheel after cooling the brakes?
