Aston Martin have revealed their push for a standardised gearbox in Formula 1, to help ease the cost cap burden on teams.
Aston Martin are currently in the process of designing their own transmission in time to partner up with Honda from the 2026 season onwards, but engineering director Luca Furbatto has revealed the team are facing “stiff opposition” from their rivals over standardising the part.
Team principal Mike Krack estimated earlier this year that the team are investing are between $8-9million per year into the development, and each gearbox unit in Formula 1 can cost up to an estimated $350,000 to manufacture. “We’re pushing for a standardised gearbox because it makes financial sense in a cost cap environment but we are facing stiff opposition,” Furbatto told Aston Martin’s official website.
