## Resource

Trumpets is joined by the Titan of Tech, Matthew Summerfield, for a forensic review of the first half of F1’s 2026 development battle. Why has Ferrari set the technical pace, how have Racing Bulls quietly impressed, and where have Williams, Haas and Aston Martin gone wrong? They explore Macarena wings, hanger flaps, Alpine’s pod winglets, tyre-pressure politics, customer-team compromises and the FIA rule changes already coming for 2027. Who has truly understood the new regulations, and who is effectively using the rest of 2026 as an extended test session? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
