Horner emphasized that the current regulations, such as the Aerodynamic Testing Rules sliding scale, which limits aero testing time for leading teams, already have a significant impact. The reduction of wind tunnel time acts as a handicap for teams and helps create convergence among the competitors.
Horner mentioned that the stability of regulations is crucial for convergence to occur naturally in Formula 1. He believes that by the end of 2025, teams will be more closely matched, and it is important to avoid frequent regulation changes that disrupt the convergence process.
