Bortoleto urges F1 drivers to turn page on 2026 rules

Audi driver Gabriel Bortoleto has urged fellow drivers to accept Formula 1's current regulations and stop complaining about changes introduced for 2026.

Bortoleto spoke after the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. He said the track had not lost its challenge despite slower corner speeds under the new rules.

"I don't think we've lost the magic of the sport," Bortoleto said. "We are still driving f****** quick through Copse. It's 280 km/h, so I'm still lifting to do that corner."

The Brazilian noted that the regulations will remain in place until 2030. He added that further adjustments are planned for 2027 and 2028 to address energy management issues.

"If there are still people complaining about it, just move the page," Bortoleto continued. "The cars are still fun to drive. It's different. We need to adapt to that and it's life."
