Mekies said that would have been the last race for this PU.
Thanks I missed that, so at least the failure does not have any more consequences which is relatively positive.
Imo they already know they got ADUO. It's the only reason to hold off with the PU this late. The delay is because of the disagreements between Audi, Ferrari, and the FIA over the 2027 rules.
Sounds logical yeah.AR3-GP wrote: ↑07 Jun 2026, 18:11Imo they already know they got ADUO. It's the only reason to hold off with the PU this late. The delay is because of the disagreements between Audi, Ferrari, and the FIA over the 2027 rules.
Max: "I had no power, so I basically steered left with the speed I still had and the grip of the tires. I especially hoped everyone would go past on the right. Luckily everyone reacted really well."
"We had a really good weekend up until the race. Of course everyone is disappointed that we're not on the podium."
"There's not much to turn around. We first have to understand what happened today. That's the most important thing."
"If I were leading the championship, this would be a very painful one. As it is now, it hurts a bit less, but it remains incredibly annoying and disappointing for everyone. Everyone wants to finish every race. I especially hope that we quickly understand what the problem was and that we can solve it in the future."
AutoRacer has learned from qualified sources, surprisingly, that it should have been Red Bull-Ford 'elected' as the best ICE of the lot. A flattering result for the newborn Red Bull Powertrains department, with the support of the American manufacturer on a not exactly sweet day in Monaco after Verstappen's breakdown. This will also mean that the Milton Keynes engine manufacturers will not be able to touch the Power Unit, unless significant changes are made to the 2027 hybrid.
The second surprise would be that the dominant Mercedes, credited by all as the best engine, would have obtained ADUO concessions for 2%. Toto Wolff's team can thus access a revised counterpart for both 2026 and 2027.
No way this is true. If it is then Mercedes are either cheating or have suffered a major loss of power after the compression ratio test that we'll see the impact of at Barcelona.AR3-GP wrote: ↑07 Jun 2026, 18:57This is an insane joke.
