Tech Show: Fixing Ferrari’s risk-averse culture + Dubious 2026 F1 car developments

On the latest episode of The Race F1 Tech Show, Edd Straw and former F1 technical director Gary Anderson discuss the concept of risk vs reward in grand prix racing, following on from Fred Vasseur's recent comments that Ferrari need to move out of a conservative mindset and 'push everything' in terms of innovation.

Edd and Gary also discuss some of the latest tech developments seen in F1, including a clever exploitation at the rear of the Red Bull's sidepod - or technically the floor - that has gone straight onto Gary's 'dubious list'.

And finally, Gary answers several questions sent in by listeners. On this weeks list are questions about hydrogen-fuelled F1, our battery graphic complaints, and if the introduction of V8 engines could be brought forward to 2028.
