Scuderia Ferrari and Renault are reported to have already passed initial front crash tests for their 2022 Formula 1 entries.
Work is, of course, taking place on 2021 cars and Ferrari are, according to the Italian version of Motorsport.com, also still developing this season’s SF1000 and beginning to look at their 2022 edition when the F1 regulations significantly change.
The Maranello team has “already passed the FIA frontal crash test and the nose of the car has obtained the homologation of the governing body”, says the report.
The same applies to Renault, who will be rebranded as Alpine next year when Fernando Alonso makes his return to Formula 1.
Although teams cannot yet work on aerodynamics for 2022, they can make progress on the structural parts of the car.
Scuderia Ferrari have admitted that realistically it will be 2022 before they can again challenge for a World Championship or even race victories in normal circumstances.
