The World Motor Sport Council p🔴ublished a raft of new F1 rules and regulations as they tackle the propoising phenomenon.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Porpoising has dominated the media headlines throughout the🐻 season with it derailing Mercedes’ seas🐎on.

The bouncing effect was so severe at the Azer🐷baijan Grand Prix that it led to Lewis Hamilton being unable to get out of his Mercedes co😼ckpit within the FIA’s extraction time limit. 

With concerns abo😼ut safety (although the likes of Ferrari and Red Bull may disagree), the FIA has decided to take action with a technical direc♈tive for the next race in Belgium, with further changes for 2023.

What are the changes for 2023?

The following revisions♛ have been made for next year:

• The floor edges will be raised by 15mm

• The diffuser throat height will be raised

• The diffuser edge stiffness will be increased

• An additional sensor will be introduced to m🎶onitor porpoising more effectively

Who will they impact the most?

Until 🐽the cars take to the track in Bahrain next year, it’s difficult to know how much of an impact they will have.

The floor changes for 2021 had a b♒igger impact than intended with low rake🅘 cars such as Mercedes and Aston Martin hampered severely, while Red Bull and AlphaTauri benefitted the most.

It was widely reported that six teams were agaiꦰnst the changes for 20♋23 but due to it being a safety concern, the FIA doesn’t need their approval.

Red Bull team boss Christ♔ian Horner has been most vocal in be🌺ing against the new regulations.

Ahead of the Hungarian Grand Prix, Horner said that the FI♛A shouldn’t change the rules in Mercedes’ favour.

On the other hand, Me꧒rcedes have consistently pushed fo෴r the rules to be changed, citing safety reasons.

Another implication of the lat🅠e change is on the budget cap.

The FIA🅰 was forced to increase the budget cap due to global inflation and the impact that has had on freig✤ht costs and materials.

Teams will have to re-design and change their 2023 car c🎐oncepts as a result of the new rules, increasing costs once agai🌠n.

It remains to be seen what impact the rules have in terms of performance but Red Bull and F🌳errari’s complaints speak volumes.

Green light given to Porsche, Audi

The engine regulations for 2026 have a🌃lso been finalised, paving thꦆe way for Porsche and Audi to join the sport.

The existing V6 power units✅ will remain but the MGU-H (motor generator unit-heat) has 💛been removed.

They will also run 100 ꦓpercent sustainable fuels - making it even more aꩲttractive for new manufacturers to enter.

There wil🧔l al﷽so be an increase in electrical power with the MGH-K able to produce around 350kW, up by 120kW.

Speaking of the news, FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem said: “The FIA continues to push forward on innov🏅ation and sustainability – across our entire motor sport portfolio – the 2026 Formula 1 Power Unit Regulations are the most high-profile example of that mission.

“The introduction of advanced PU technology along with synthetic sustainable fuels aligns with our objective of delivering benefits for road car users and meeting our objective of net zero carbon by 2030. Formula 1 is currently enjoying immense growth and we are confident these regulations will bui🤪l𒆙d on the excitement our 2022 changes have produced.

“I want to thank all of the FIA management and technical staff involved in this process for their diligence and commitment in working together w🍸ith all of our Formula 1 stakeholders to deliver this. I also want to thank our WMSC members for their consideration and approval of these regulations.”
