god, they actually fought?..gotta read about that. Anyway. new rules for the enxt season.
Teams will apparently be allowed to place 3 cars in the race., but the 3rd driver musn't have more than 6 races made in the last 2 years.
pit stop way speed is doubled, to 100 km/h
One negine per weekend.
quali sessions are different for each circuit. Friday and Saturday are mixed into one session..and.....i don't remember anything else 🙂
ok, everyone, this are the new rules in total, word per word as how the World Motor Sport Council made them:
Race Weekend Schedule
Friday
11.00-12.00 Free practice
14.00-15.00 Free practice
During both sessions all teams, other than those who finished in the top four positions of the previous year’s World Championship for Constructors, will be permitted to run a third car provided any driver of this car:
- is not one of the team’s nominated drivers for the Event in question;
- is in possession of a Super Licence;
- has not taken place in more than six World Championship Events during the two previous World Championships.
If one of the team’s nominated drivers is deemed unable to drive at some stage after the end initial scrutineering, and the stewards agree to a change of driver, the driver of a third car may take part in the remainder of the Event. Under such circumstances a driver who started the Event as a 'third' driver would have to continue with the same engine for the remainder of the Event.
The requirements of Article 60 concerning car livery will not apply to the third car being used during these two sessions but will apply should this car be used as the team’s spare car during the remainder of the event.
Saturday
10.00-10.45 Free practice
11.15-12.00 Free practice
14.00 Qualifying begins and will be run as follows:
- the session will be held in two parts separated by two minutes;
- during the first part each driver will carry out a single timed lap as now starting in the order they finished in the previous race. At the first race of the year the order of the last Event of the previous year’s World Championship will be used (in both cases any new drivers will be arranged in numerical order);
- any car stopping in the first part will not be allowed to take part in the second, if the car is brought back to the pits before the end of the session it must remain in parc fermé until the end of the session;
- refuelling rigs will be allowed in the first part subject to everyone wearing suitable clothing and photographers being restricted as for a race;
- the running order for the second part will be determined by the times achieved in the first part reversed;
- cars will run with race fuel and race settings as in 2003;
- in both sessions cars will be released as the previous one crosses the Line to start its flying lap;
- in both sessions the 6th, 11th and 16th cars in sequence will be released two minutes after the previous finishes its flying lap;
Sunday
14.00 Race (or at other times according to the relevant schedule).
Tyre use and allocation
The number of dry-weather tyres available to each driver during the Event will remain the same at forty, twenty front and twenty rear. Each driver will be allocated three sets of dry-weather tyres for use on Friday, these maynot be used at any other time during the Event.
No tyres from the remaining seven sets may be used on Friday. The choice of dry-weather tyre for qualifying and race must be made by 09.00 on Saturday (either specification of tyre may be used for the free practice sessions on Saturday). However, if both Friday sessions are declared wet this choice may be postponed until 13.00 on Saturday.
The number of wet-weather tyres available to each driver during the Event will remain the same at twenty-eight, fourteen front and fourteen rear. Extreme weather tyres will continue to be permitted but, as now, may only be used when authorised.
Parc fermé procedures
To remain the same as in 2003 but the practice of fuel circulation for the purposes of cooling
will now be prohibited.
Number of drivers per car
Each team will now be allowed to use four drivers during each season, not including any third driver running in the Friday sessions.
Pit lane speed limit
The speed limit for qualifying and race will be raised to 100km/h. In accordance with Article 100 (of the draft 2004 Sporting Regulations) the Permanent Bureau may be asked to consider a lower limit at tracks which have a particularly narrow pit lane.

these rules r too confusing. but mclaren need to stop with dc now. i have been his fan for a long time till the second half of the season b coz now he has really lost it. they should try sum1 different, WURZ they should coz he is their test driver, i really would like him to get a shot. and n other 1 i was thinking was villeneuve coz hey mclaren can try sumthin adventerous
yes...it's very probable. Montoya wanted to get out of williams as soon as possible. Ofcourse he's better than dc, but think about this. dc CAN have better results. This last race he was behind kimi, and had a pretty good race overall..because his position is threatenned. So he can drive better...but montoya will probably have better results......i just hope we won't have race fights between him and kimi.
