F1 Stats & Telemetry

Exploring Formula 1 performance data across regulation eras. From the peak V6 hybrid era through ground effect cars to the new power unit regulations.

The New Era

2022: Ground Effect Returns

The biggest regulation change in decades. Cars with sculpted floors generating downforce through ground effect, replacing complex bargeboards and aero surfaces. Heavier, but designed to allow closer racing.

2026: New Power Unit Era

Removal of the MGU-H, increased electrical power from 120kW to 350kW, and simplified ICE. A fundamental shift in how F1 cars make and deploy power — with less total horsepower but more electrical dependency.
