Weird, because on the other hand the regulations go more towards what's standard in road cars. I thought that's why we lose the MGU-H.

So following that logic, Mercedes would have to include all of their road car engine development cost in their F1 budget cap? Doesn't make much sense.

You mean yeah, Ferrari can totally share lessons learned for many parts and tech between their hypercar and f1 divisions

Good to read that they are closing loopholes left and right. But don’t underestimate the resourcefulness of an f1 team, they’ll find new loopholes to exploit

Isn't this exactly what was predicted when the budget cap was put in place?

I think it's targeting projects like the AMG One and the Redbull one. The WEC entries have a different set of regulations.

In the article it says:

With a Le Mans hypercar, like the ones Ferrari and soon Alpine have, that's not possible. There are regulations for that that have nothing to do with Formula 1. It would be conspicuous if Ferrari were to screw an underbody under its 499P for testing purposes that looks similar to the SF-23. Ferrari would have to go the same way as Red Bull via a customer sports car for the racetrack.
