2025/2026 Hybrid Powerunit speculation

[BassVirolla]

yes there's something in the rules ....
monotonicity .....
for any rpm above idle PU torque output must always increase with increase in accelerator displacement
(so the PU behaves like a conventional engine not a freak show)

Still, ICE actuating versus MGUK recovery, can amount to zero torque output of whole PU.

But if the same wording applies to PU and ICE that would be an effective clampdown on what I'm guessing.

I think the whole monotonicity thing means you can't do that.

I'll research through the ruleset when I could.

Nevertheless, I'm looking forward to hear some funny noises before some braking points in February '26.
