Finally you could say. New rules for the 2021 season he saw the light of day. Formula 1 in FIA they worked on for many years extensive rules, which were also presented to the public today. Much has already been written about drafts and debates and critiques, today they are Carey, Brown in Tombazis in Austin (Jean Todt was connected via video link) to present what we will from in 2021 looking ahead on the racetracks of the royal class of motorsport.
At the forefront of the new policy were five main objectives:
Raceability racing cars
More competitive field: smaller backlogs between teams
Financial sustainability: cost reduction and a sustainable business model
Environment: technical pioneers in road-relevant areas
Aesthetics: Good looking race cars
Jean Todt, president of the FIA, said via video link: “Unfortunately, I cannot be present in Austin today. But today is a very important day for sport, the conclusion of a long development and participation of all participants. The new 2021 policy has also been approved by the WMSC, which covers technology, sports and finance, which we have not had so far. These race cars will allow for better sports. The policy will be easy to understand. Finances will be transparent and transparent. With the budget ceiling, we want to create that teams have similar starting points. If we succeed in this, then the sport will automatically be better. 175 million is still a high amount, but it is a start."
Ross Brawn, Formula One sports boss"We wanted a race car with which the racers could attack well. We want the field to be leveled so that the teams can survive and, in the end, the cars to be exciting with their appearance - even when they are standing. We also didn’t want race cars that were constantly losing parts. The 2021 race car will be significantly more robust than it is today."
Nicholas Tombazis, FIA technical chief"The focus of the new race cars from a technical point of view is: simplified front wings, we no longer have side air deflectors, basically it is a car with only front and rear wings, which means that the vacuum will be generated less through the wings that cause air swirling, and therefore more over the body of the race car. Given this, race cars will be easier to follow."
