Introduction

The FIA and F1 leaders want to change the car engines for 2027. They want the cars to be safer and faster.

Main Body

The old 2026 plan had a problem. The engines used too much battery power and not enough fuel power. Drivers did not like this. It made the cars hard to drive and dangerous. Now, the leaders will change the power. The engines will use more fuel and less battery. This makes the cars drive more like normal racing cars. Also, the FIA will help some companies. Some engine makers are too slow. The FIA will give these companies more money and more time to fix their engines.

Conclusion

Experts must check these changes first. Then, a group of leaders will vote to make them official.

🏎️ Power Words: More vs. Less

In this text, we see how to compare things using More and Less. This is a key skill for A2 students to describe changes.

The Pattern: More β†’ used for a higher amount (+) Less β†’ used for a lower amount (-)

Examples from the text:

  • More fuel β†’\rightarrow Higher amount of gas.
  • Less battery β†’\rightarrow Lower amount of electricity.
  • More money β†’\rightarrow Extra cash.
  • More time β†’\rightarrow Extra hours/days.

Quick Tip: Use these words when you want to show a difference between a 'New' way and an 'Old' way.

Old: Too much battery β†’\rightarrow New: Less battery.
