FIA ranks F1 engine manufacturers after 2026 ADUO assessment

Summary

During the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix weekend, the FIA announced its first ADUO assessment rankings for Formula 1 engine manufacturers. Ferrari, Audi, and Honda are set to receive two engine upgrades each, after falling more than 4% behind the benchmark for internal combustion engine performance. Mercedes, trailing just behind at 2% to 4% back, qualifies for one upgrade while Red Bull Ford Powertrains, the assessed benchmark, will receive no upgrades despite being labeled as the best engine. The implications of these assessments could impact team performances as the season progresses, with teams now strategizing around their development opportunities.
