Emirati motorsport administrator and FIA president
FIA, F1 and teams have moved to fast-track changes to power-unit regulations after a Miami weekend marked by energy-management concerns. Officials aim to tilt the balance toward the internal-combustion engine, with new talks about larger fuel tanks and possible future V8s to restore flat-out racing. The shift comes as teams upgrade ahead of the 2027 rules and long-term engine plans are debated.
Christian Horner has been linked with a Formula 1 return, with talks centering on roles at Alpine, Aston Martin, Ferrari, or even a new BYD-backed team. He has issued cautious statements about timing, saying he will return only for a winning opportunity, while others say the sport remains hungry for his leadership.
