FIA to Review F1 Energy Management After Bearman’s 50G Suzuka Crash

Oliver Bearman’s dramatic 50G crash at the Japanese Grand Prix has prompted the FIA to push a structured review of the 2026 energy-management regulations. With gaps in electrical boost causing dangerously high closing speeds, the FIA says meetings with teams, power-unit manufacturers, and FOM will assess the system and whether refinements are needed after collecting more data in the opening phase of the season, all while prioritizing safety.

Melbourne Opens F1's New Hybrid Era

F1's 2026 season kicked off in Melbourne with a radical rules shake-up: smaller, lighter cars and far more powerful hybrid power units that force energy conservation across laps, reshaping race strategy. Mercedes showed pace as George Russell won, with Kimi Antonelli second and Charles Leclerc third; Lewis Hamilton finished fourth. Verstappen crashed in practice/qualifying, and Piastri failed to start due to power-unit issues, with six cars retiring overall. Cadillac and Audi debuted with mixed results as teams adapt to the new powertrains, and the season moves to Shanghai amid cautious optimism about the new racing format.

Melbourne test for F1's 2026 rules sparks driver pushback and paddock politics

At the Australian Grand Prix, drivers praised the number of overtakes but criticized F1's 2026 hybrid rules—particularly the 50/50 ICE-to-battery power split and energy modes like Straight Mode—that can sap power and make passing feel artificial, raising safety concerns; paddock politics are emerging as teams and the FIA consider tweaks ahead of Shanghai.

Russell fires back at Norris over F1 rule critique

George Russell hit back at Lando Norris's critique of F1's energy-management–driven new rules after Norris's post-Australian GP comments, saying drivers are inherently selfish and urging fans to give the regs a proper chance. Russell, who won the Australian GP from pole and now leads the title race, argued energy strategy will vary by track (Shanghai next) and noted last year McLaren beat him with a similar engine, illustrating that results depend on how teams interpret the rules.

F1 2026: Bigger power, tighter energy management, and Apple TV takes the broadcast reins

F1’s 2026 rules reset brings 1.6 L V6 hybrids with a boosted MGU-K and larger battery, delivering up to 1,006 hp but requiring careful energy deployment (8.5 MJ per lap) through regen and “superclipping”; drivers like Verstappen and Hamilton warn the new energy-management demands, while Aston Martin Honda battles a vibration issue that could jeopardize early races; Apple TV becomes the U.S. broadcaster for F1, offering F1TV Premium via Apple platforms with multi-view feeds, enhanced maps, and live audio and content through Apple Music and related apps.

Long COVID: Eight Forms Identified, Treatments Lag

A physician watches his 28-year-old daughter, Samantha, endure severe long COVID, a condition now recognized to have eight distinct forms; despite growing scientific awareness, effective treatments remain scarce, forcing patients to carefully budget energy, endure debilitating “crashes” that can confine them to bed for days, and rely on disciplined routines as researchers seek better therapies.

Google Home App Adds Scheduling Support for Older Nest Thermostats

Google has started rolling out a feature that allows users of older Nest thermostats (3rd gen Nest Learning Thermostat and Nest Thermostat E) in the US and UK to schedule temperature adjustments via the Google Home app, eliminating the need for the dedicated Nest app for scheduling. This update enhances usability and integrates older models into the Google ecosystem, along with other improvements to the Home app such as better device status visuals and energy usage insights.

"Self-Powered Sensor Harnesses Magnetic Energy for Automatic Energy Harvesting"

MIT researchers have developed a self-powered sensor that can harvest energy from its environment, eliminating the need for batteries or special wiring. The sensor, which can be embedded in hard-to-reach places, such as inside a ship's engine, gathers data on power consumption and operations for extended periods. The researchers offer a design guide for an energy-harvesting sensor that can be applied to various power sources, making it suitable for factories, warehouses, and commercial spaces. The sensor's energy management system addresses challenges such as cold starting, energy storage, and control algorithms, enabling it to operate without a battery and transmit data using Bluetooth.
