FIA and Liberty seek agreement on F1 2027 engine regulations ahead of Spanish GP
Summary

The FIA and Liberty Media aim to finalize the 2027 Formula 1 power unit regulations before the Spanish Grand Prix on June 12-14. Pressure is mounting on engine manufacturers to reach a compromise. Recent discussions highlighted a proposal for a 14% increase in fuel flow to adjust the power distribution, facing objections from Ferrari and Audi. While the meeting prior to the Canadian GP had shown unity among manufacturers, subsequent discussions revealed concerns over reliability and costs related to significant modifications. An alternative solution has emerged that could help maintain a favorable power ratio without drastic changes to the engines, but a resolution must be quickly achieved for the upcoming approval deadline.
