F1 set for telemetry clampdown under 2021 proposals
Formula 1 bosses want to scale back the amount of telemetry that 🐬can be gathered by teams from 2021 in a bid to give more control to drivers and allow for greater unpredictability as part of the push to improve the sport.

ltxcn.top has learned that team officials were informed during the meeting with F1 bꦗosses in Bahrain that a clampdown on the level of telemetry and 🦩data acquisition allowed was planned for 2021, when the next shake-up of the technical regulations is due to take place.
The move is fuelled by a desire to place a greater onus on the driver behind the whe🌳el in races, taking some control away from the engineers ♉and the race control centres back at teams’ factories, as well as creating more room for errors and mistakes.
The proposal was part of F1’s wide-ranging blueprint for 2🐠021 that was unveiled 🌳in Bahrain that also includes a cost cap of $150 million per year, a change in prize money distribution, and a꧃ simplification of the existing power unit specification.
One of the objectives of F1’s plans was to allow for greate𒆙r unpredictability and make the ou🐻tcome of grands prix more random. While the cutback on telemetry would likely increase the failure rate of cars and make races harder to predict, it would not come at the expense of safety standards.
The move also aids F1’s push to make the sport eas🌊ier for fans to understand and consume, which was another key focus point in the Bahrain meeting.
An effort to give drivers greater autonomy was made in 2016 wꦕhen F1 restricted the informati🌺on that could be supplied by team radio, only for the rule to be removed mid-season following confusion and outcry from fans.
Reactions to the proposals for 2021 have been mixed up and down the paddock. Williams deputy chief Claire Williams said she wanted to 💜“crack open some champagne” in response to the plans, while Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff was more reserved, calling the prop💃osal a “starting point” that needed to ꦜbe built upon.
F1 bosses are set to spend the coming weeks discussing the plans in greater detail with teams, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:having set a target of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:finalising the engine regulations for 2021 by the end of Ma🍎y.
