So, the difficulties that that the small teams are facing is an issue on the table – so I think all these problems are very well connected’ added former Ferrari boss Marco Mattiacci. The fact that we cannot enhance our power unit during the season is a cost for us, for not performing. 2015 is clear we will have to – at the moment – accept the status quo but definitely we are not going to accept the status quo for 2016. In terms of power unit and in terms of regulation. ‘We need to look at something different 2016. Cost of development, cost of supply to a team and to the privateer teams’ Red Bull Team Boss Christian Horner argued at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Maybe still a V6 but maybe a more simplified V6 that controls the cost. I think an awful lot can be done for 2016 and maybe we need to even go as far as looking at a different engine. ‘The costs are too high and I think one of the crucial aspects in those costs is the power unit and that’s something the strategy group, as well as the other players within Formula One have a duty of care to look at very carefully and I think. The group is demanding the introduction of a technologically dumbed down 1.6 litre twin turbo V6 engines using a spec hybrid system. Formula 1 could have a new rule book in 2016 if a campaign by a number of major players is successful.
