The new Formula 1 regulations have spurred interest from car manufacturers like Honda, Ford, Audi, and Cadillac, with Honda reconsidering its initial exit. The development of hybrid systems is a central challenge, particularly the compact and powerful 350 kW engine. Major companies are aware of the essential technology transfer from racing to consumer vehicles, although direct applications remain rare. Aston Martin benefits from Adrian Newey’s design expertise, emphasizing the evolving nature of engine formulas that might prioritize power over aerodynamics in future races.
"We are struggling, now we are trying our best to show the result next year. Everything is new. The motor is new, developing 350 kW-it's a very compact one."
"I think there's been some interest in the technology and software we've developed. Whether it trickles down to road cars... it's a big jump from a race car to road cars."
