The FIA has updated the technical regulations for Formula 1, prohibiting Ferrari's exhaust wings starting in 2027. This decision follows Ferrari's successful use of the exhaust wing during pre-season testing in Bahrain, which allowed the team to gain additional downforce using exhaust gases. The FIA has implemented a new exclusion zone to prevent similar designs in the future. Changes in regulations also target other aerodynamic features and designs, ensuring uniformity across teams. Additional modifications to regulations concerning floor body stays and suspension designs have also been approved.
- •FIA officially tightens 2027 technical regulations.
- •Ferrari's exhaust wing exploited a loophole from 2026 rules.
- •New regulations include an exclusion zone for tailpipe bodywork.
- •Changes approved during FIA's World Motor Sport Council meeting.
- •Other updates restrict floor body stays and suspension design.
