Alonso calls 2026 F1 cars the worst ever after Monaco practice

Fernando Alonso renewed his criticism of Formula 1's 2026 machinery after Friday practice at the Monaco Grand Prix, describing the new cars as the worst he has driven.

The Aston Martin driver has been one of the most outspoken critics of the latest rules package. His frustration centres on the way energy management affects high-speed corners, with drivers having to lift rather than attack sections that previously rewarded commitment.
