ICE minimum mass based on MGU-K location

In Simple Terms

The internal combustion engine (ICE) must weigh at least 130kg, 132kg, or 134kg depending on where the MGU-K energy recovery system is physically mounted on the car. This minimum weight requirement ensures fairness and prevents teams from making engines dangerously light.

• ICE minimum mass varies between 130kg, 132kg, and 134kg based on MGU-K location
• MGU-K Mechanical Transmission positioning directly affects the required engine weight
• Different configurations require different minimum weights to maintain competitive balance
• Teams must ensure their engine meets the specified minimum for their chosen setup
