A minor change has been made to the Sporting Regulations for F2 and F3 heading into 2024, which has been called for in F1.
Starting from the 2024 Formula 2 and Formula 3 seasons, any driver who triggers a red flag during qualifying may face the deletion of their fastest lap. There has been a demand for stricter red flag rules in Formula 1 and its support series, as drivers sometimes exploit the situation to secure advantageous starting positions. While Formula 1 has not implemented this change, IndyCar already enforces the penalty of losing the lap-time after causing a yellow flag. However, the rule will be introduced in the support bill in 2024. Article 33.5 of the F2 and F3 Sporting Regulations for 2024 clearly states that any driver solely responsible for a red flag during qualifying will not be allowed to continue the session and may have their fastest lap time erased.
