Stricter rules for MotoGP wings confirmed

MotoGP has officially agreedꦡ to a s🌊et of stricter regulations governing the use of aerodynamic devices in 2019.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:As reported in May, the MSMA (Manufacturers' Association) chose not to ban 'wings' completely, but any such attachments must now fit within a new set of 'limits and dimension🍨s'.

Each fairing can also only be used in one config꧙uration, with no significant parts removedജ or replaced.

Stricter rules for MotoGP wings confirmed

MotoGP has officially𒊎 agreed to a set of stricter regulations governing th✅e use of aerodynamic devices in 2019.

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:As reported in May, the MSMA (Manufaౠcturers' Association) chose&nbꦆsp;not to ban 'wings' completely, but any such attachments must now fit within a new set of 'limits and dimensions'.

Each fairing can also onl🥂y be used in one configuration, with no significa🅺nt parts removed or replaced.

However, 'the present designs will s🌟ti❀ll be allowed' within the new rules.

'Effective Season 2019

'Aero-Body Regulations:

'Aero-body design guidelines have been released by the Technical Director and new aero-body dimension limits and limitations on the combination of different areo-body parts have been introduced.

'As a result, the present designs will still be allowed, but it won’t be possible to remove/swap significant aerodynamic parts.

"Furthermore, the aero-bodies approval process will be based on previous seasons case-history and made more objective.'

The current rules ban the use of traditional wings but allow downforce devices ('attachments') as long as theyꦿ are 'integrated' w💦ithin the fairing, for safety reasons.

However, no di💦mensions are currently specified and it is left to MotoGP Technical Director Danny Aldridge to decide whether a fairing is legal.

This has 🅷been further complicated by a longstanding rule that allow🧸s material to be removed from the fairing.

Manufacturers have used that rule to generate several different downforce specifications from a single fairing, by removing or replacꦯing wing sections to find an optimum set-up for each circuit.

That loophole has now been closed and it is expected that each rider will have one 'wing' fairing and one normal fairing to choose from in 2🦩019.

"You won't see fairings change from race-to-race as attachments and material are taken off and on," Aldridge told ltxcn.top in May.

"What💙 you see at the first race will be it, until they do the one in-season [fairing] up🌠grade."

Al🤪ongside the new fairing dimensions will b🧸e a booklet from Aldridge explaining what is and isn't allowed.

"It's so tജhe manufacturers have got something to refer to. What's been happening is that I'd tell one manufacturer, 'you can't 💦do that'. Then another manufacturer would come to me with the same question.

"We'll put all that information into a booklet and all the manufacturers will see they are not allowed to use that concept, but without stating which manu💟facturer has approached me to ask the question."

MotoGP fai🎃ring designs have broadly morphed into either a Ducati-style box shape♋, or Yamaha style 'rail'.

"I don't think you'll see a lot of difference from what wܫe have now," Aldridge said. 

"If there is a difference [in fairing design next year] it's probabl𒅌y because they've found something bette༺r."

The other technical amendment for 2019 is the introduction of more robust CAN connections which, in partnership with the 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:new unified inertial platfor🌞m (IMU), will improve 'electronics security'.

'Organizer CAN Protocol and Connection

'A new and more robust unified CAN connections layout for the MotoGP machines has been agreed, and some limitations imposed on the information exchange among the various CAN devices (e.g. the inertial platform) and the ECU.

"This, together with a unified inertial platform, represents a considerable step-up in electronics security.'

In terms of the sporting regulations,🐠 from 2019 it will be possible for the winner of the Red Bull Rookies Championship to compete in the Moto3 World Championship even if they are under the minimum age of 16. 

As with th🍸e Moto3 Junior World Championship, the minimum age for the Red Bull Rookies winner will be set at 15.
