Formula 1 stakeholders have reached an agreement to incrementally increase the power from internal combustion engines starting in 2027. The FIA announced a plan to shift from the current 53/47 split between combustion and electrical power to a 60/40 split by 2028. As part of this transition, fuel flow rates for power units will see a five percent increase in 2027. These changes aim to address energy management concerns within the sport. The modifications come after discussions among all key stakeholders.
