Formula 1 teams have blocked FIA's attempt to close a tyre loophole for the sprint race at the last-minute. Full details: F1
A tyre anomaly in Formula’s 1’s new sprint race format regulations has emerged in Azerbaijan but teams have blocked the FIA’s attempt to change the rule at the last minute.The rule in question relates to tyre usage for the three-part Saturday shootout session that determines the grid for the sprint later in the day.
In effect, a team can have an extra set of softs relative to rivals to use in Q1 or if the drivers get through, in Q2 – giving it a potential advantage over rivals. In a recent change to the sporting regulations, provision was included for “temporary” changes to the sprint race rules to be made on race weekends with the agreement of at least eight teams.
