Eddie Jordan’s tirade against modern F1: “I absolutely hate them for it”
Eddie Jordan has launched a tirade against the staꩵte of modern daဣy F1.

Eddie Jordan has criticised the state of modern day of F1, describing the current cars as “tractors”.
Over the years, the weight of F1 cars has ste�ꦰ�adily increased.
This is partly due to safety reasons and structures on the car such as 𒆙the halo, while the hybrid engine brought additional technoꩲlogy resulting in additional weight.
In 2012, the weight was around 640kg.
10 years later, the minimum weight for 2022-2024ꦿ is an astonishing 798kg.
The new rules in ಌ2026 are expected to bring the weight down slightly, but still nowhere near the ඣearly 2010s.
Speaking on the podcast, Jordan🏅 launched an attack on F1.
“My God, when you were at a race, and let’s say you were at Silverstone, and even if you were not inside the grid, and you were o♊utside and you were on the grandstand, and the race started, and those V10s, I can promise you, the ground shuddered,” Jordan said.
“It absolutely moved underneath you, such was the element of the power transmitted to the noise, to the sound, to the surface, it just absolutely went through your body. It was sex on wheels. A🐽nd that’s what motor racing was for me and that’s what I enjoyed so much.
“We’re too cowardly, what’s going on aဣt the moment, whether it’s regulations or it’s this 🅷that and the other. Will we ever get back to the V10s? Probably not.
“And the second little thing, which is married to that, which makes such a difference, I mean, these cars, and let’s be fair to Lewis [Hamilton] and to Max [Verstappen] and Lando [Norris] and what they’re doing, unbelievable jobs with these cars, but they’re tract✃ors. They a𓄧re tractors. They’re 1000 kilograms, massively overweight.
He added: “And as far as I’m concerned, shame on the regulations, shame on the organisers and shame on the people who have Formula 1 deeply bu🍬ried in their soul, because they’ve allowed this sport, in my opinion, to go to a step that may never come back from here, and I absolutely hate them for it.”
