The FIA has adjusted two rules in the sporting regulations. One allows the race director to order a team to pull over a damaged car.
The FIA has made adjustments to two of F1’s rules, one stemming from the controversy at last year’s Canadian Grand Prix where Sergio Perez’s actions led to a three-place grid penalty. A new regulation under Article 26.10 now gives race director Rui Marques the authority to instruct a team to pull over a severely damaged car that poses a safety risk on track. In a related change, drivers starting from the pit lane must now participate in the formation lap, a new requirement that was not previously in place. These modifications aim to prevent future incidents and ensure fair competition in F1 races.
