F1 news is heating up and Formula 1 has just been rocked by a HUGE decision. The FIA has reportedly moved to ban a clever engine trick used by both Mercedes and Red Bull, and this could completely change the competitive order in F1.

Welcome back to F1 Grandstand, your home for daily F1 news, Formula 1 analysis, and the biggest stories in F1.

We start with the breaking news as the FIA steps in to stop a controversial power unit loophole that Mercedes and Red Bull were using to gain an advantage in qualifying. What exactly was this trick, why has it been banned, and who benefits the most from this change in Formula 1?

Then we turn to Mercedes and George Russell, with insiders claiming he is now a “shell of his former self” under the pressure of a Formula 1 title fight. Is the pressure getting to him, or is this just noise during a high-stakes F1 season?

At Red Bull, things are getting intense. Laurent Mekies has reportedly banned the word “surrender” inside the team as they fight to stay competitive in the 2026 Formula 1 era. Is this strong leadership, or a sign that Red Bull know they are in trouble?

We then shift to McLaren, where the team has clarified the contract situations of Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri amid ongoing Max Verstappen rumours. Does this shut the door on one of the biggest potential moves in Formula 1?

Next, a shocking update from Williams reveals just how chaotic their 2026 car build has been, with reports claiming “nothing fit” when they tried to put the car together. What does this mean for their future in F1?

And finally, Helmut Marko has reportedly blocked a move that would have seen Yuki Tsunoda join Haas, raising more questions about Red Bull’s control over the Formula 1 driver market.

This is a massive day for F1 news and Formula 1, with huge implications across the grid. From FIA intervention to driver pressure, team politics, and behind-the-scenes chaos, we break it all down.

👇 Let me know your thoughts in the comments:
Is the FIA right to ban this engine trick?
Is George Russell really struggling under pressure?
Are Red Bull in decline?
And who wins big from all of this in Formula 1?

Big F1 news tonight and the biggest question is simple: are Red Bull starting to come apart? After Gianpiero Lambiase’s McLaren move, Red Bull have now been linked with yet another senior departure, while fresh reports suggest Jonathan Wheatley could even end up back at Red Bull instead of joining Aston Martin. In Formula 1, when the key people start moving, everything changes fast.  Tony Craig has the latest Formula 1 News.🔔 SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/@F1Grandstand?sub_confirmation=1 

We break down the latest on the growing Red Bull instability, what another exit would mean for Max Verstappen, and why the team now looks far more vulnerable than it did just a short while ago. We also get into the suggestion that if Verstappen retires, Red Bull may be more likely to turn to Carlos Sainz than Charles Leclerc, which says a lot about the kind of reset they may already be thinking about behind the scenes.  ￼

There is also a huge Formula 1 story around the 2026 rules. The FIA says there has been “constructive dialogue” on tweaks to the 2026 regulations after concerns around energy management, qualifying, and the safety implications of big closing speeds. More meetings are scheduled for April 15, April 16 and April 20 before any proposals go to a vote, so this is not over and Miami could become a key moment.  ￼

On the Ferrari side, Lewis Hamilton could still play a major role in Fred Vasseur’s future amid the Andrea Stella rumours, while Ferrari continue to look like a team that believes it still has plenty to come this season. That makes this political fight at the top of the paddock even more interesting.  ￼

We also touch on Arvid Lindblad, Formula 1’s only rookie this year, who says he is “living the dream” and refuses to feel pressure despite being fast-tracked by Red Bull. That makes the wider Red Bull driver story even more fascinating as the team tries to manage its future while senior figures continue to be linked with moves elsewhere.  ￼
