For this month's F1R THE WORLD topic we dive deep into the 2026 regulations: what are they, how they relate to sustainability, what are the debates and controversies, and what’s still up in the air. While 2026 may seem far away, it's top of mind for teams as they prepare for the biggest regulation changes the sport has seen since 2014. As F1 tries to balance its carbon net zero goals with "maintaining the spectacle" of the world's most glamorous sport, we discuss the questions and trade-offs surrounding targeting a greener world through regulation.Visit us at f1rthegirls.com, where you can find merch and more!
