This 2kg increase will only apply to the weight of the pilots.<\/strong> Currently the weight of the pilots and all their equipment (helmet, device, HANS) has to reach 80kg and if not it is compensated with ballast.<strong> In 2025, this weight could be 82kg.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This means that<strong> F1 single-seaters will break a new weight record, in a category that in theory is looking to make everything lighter<\/strong> to make it easier to overtake in view of 2026.<strong> Carlos Sainz has explained his opinion on this small increase in the minimum weight <\/strong>And although he is in favor of it being greater, he believes that the solution is not the best.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously, two kilos is not a big change.<strong> The problem is when you start adding two kilos to two others<\/strong>two more, two more&#8230; I think that&#8217;s the trend in Formula 1 over the last 10 years: keep adding two kilos here, three there, five there, and then the cars have reached a weight of 800 kilos. In the past, they weighed around 600,&#8221; said the Spaniard, who <strong>as most people want much lighter cars.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Carlos<strong> He has never had many problems with his minimum weight, but he has warned that he has had to control not only his diet, but also his entire muscle mass.<\/strong> that he gained with his training: &#8220;I had to be careful with the amount of muscle I gained and the food I ate. But I was always at the limit of that weight,&#8221; he commented.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>I had to be careful about how much muscle I gained and what food I ate.<\/p>\n<p><span>Carlos Sainz<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The &#8217;55&#8217; is not one of the tallest drivers on the grid and<strong> He wanted to think about them and the difficulties they must encounter to be within the minimum weight set by the FIA:<\/strong> &#8220;But I can imagine being a Nico, an Esteban or a Russell. I wouldn&#8217;t be very happy if I was 180 centimetres or taller. That&#8217;s why I understand that it was probably made for the heavier or taller riders, because they have always had a bit more difficulties than the average-sized riders like me,&#8221; he stressed.<\/p>\n<h2>Daniel Ricciardo agrees with Sainz<\/h2>\n<p>Daniel Ricciardo also wanted to think about some of his teammates who are several centimetres taller than 1.80m.<strong>They can&#8217;t help being tall. So it&#8217;s unfair that they have to get a little dehydrated to reach their weight.<\/strong>so to speak,&#8221; he said, showing that they have to make some more sacrifices than the rest.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>They can&#8217;t help being tall. It&#8217;s unfair that they have to get a little dehydrated.<\/p>\n<p><span>Daniel Ricciardo<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;But even for us, even having reached that weight, it&#8217;s nice to have the freedom to be the athletes we need to be and not think &#8216;oh, we have to be careful, we can&#8217;t do too much strength training&#8217;,&#8221; he added, reaffirming a bit everything Sainz has said. <strong>He concluded by showing his support for the FIA \u200b\u200bif this weight rule serves the safety of the drivers. <\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Carlos Sainz has been very critical of the driver weight rule and he hopes&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1532,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-la-liga-breaking-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3.1 -
