Formula 1's governing body, the FIA, held a meeting with engine manufacturers on Thursday to address concerns over a potential loophole in the 2026 power unit regulations. Manufacturers agreed on a methodology to measure compression ratios in hot-running engines, though no immediate rule changes are expected. The controversy centers on Mercedes and Red Bull allegedly gaining a performance edge through heat-expanding materials.
