F1 to tweak rules ahead of new season
Reuters - Tue, 02 Feb 10:28:00 2010

Formula One teams and decision makers have agreed changes to the points system and tyre rules for this season as well as a ban on controversial 'double diffusers' from 2011.

The FIA said that the new points system will see the top 10 rewarded in a 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1 sequence to encourage what it called "the race to win".

The FIA had said in December that the points would be allocated 25-20-15-10-8-6-5-3-2-1 to reward race winners and encourage overtaking.

The Formula One Commission, which groups the teams and major stakeholders, agreed the amendments to the sporting and technical regulations at a meeting on Monday.

The measures will be submitted to the World Motor Sport Council for final approval within 48 hours, although that can usually be taken for granted.

The tyre rules will be modified so that those drivers reaching the third and final phase of qualifying will have to start the race on the same set of tyres with which their grid time was set.

That will introduce another strategic element to races.

"The number of dry weather tyres sets allocated per team has been reduced from 14 to 11," the FIA added.

"In addition, to encourage teams to run during the Friday practice sessions, one set has to be returned before the start of the second practice session, and two sets before the start of the third practice session."

For 2011, the 'double diffusers' that pitched last season into controversy from the opening race when some teams such as eventual champions Brawn turned up with a radical interpretation, will be banned.

The permitted height of the main diffuser was also reduced from 175mm to 125mm.

The so-called 'split level' or 'double-decker' diffuser used by Brawn, Toyota and Williams was a radical re-working of a device that improves downforce by channelling the flow of air smoothly under the car.

The other teams then had to rush to copy it after losing appeals against it.

Teams unveiling their 2010 cars have been coy about their rear diffusers, sparking fears that a fresh row could erupt when the season starts on March 14 in Bahrain.

"This is the first car in which we have had a clean sheet of paper to really exploit the interpretation that was developed last year for a design of floors," McLaren engineering director Paddy Lowe said at his team's car launch last week.

"You will see we have produced a fairly extreme incarnation of that but we won't be alone in that. We believe you will see some pretty extreme solutions on our competitors' cars as well."

akughi

sukanduniaaku

naaahaaiii...byk sgt kot.. winner get 20 points udah laa..

weta_studio

kelebihan gak pada sapa2 terutama yg tgh kejar point

mcm last season susah nak ambik no 1 pasal point mata skit je

Yo-Ya

aku tak setuju dengan mata 2....nampak sangat jurang perbezaan. Perhatikah kedudukan no. 1-4, bezabya adalah 5 mata...besar tu {:1_126:}

1 - 25
2- 20
3- 15
4- 10

dan no 5-10, bezanya hanya 2 dan 1... tak terkejar la mereka yang dibelakang....
Ni dikatakan sistem sekarang, macam gaji jugak la...

Yang gred Jusa dan dan 48 keatas berbeza tangga gajinya dengan yang 44 ke bawah

weta_studio

230# ShadowChaser presiden FIA dah tahu schumy masuk utk tolong dia dominate lagi

weta_studio

229# Yo-Ya yg selalu tukar ni bila bab berasaskan teknikal

tapi apa yg diharap setiap perubahan tu menjamin keseronokan tgk F1

ShadowChaser

231# weta_studio

heh ironi kan, macam berpakat lak, shcumy & brawn together again, todt presiden fia, cuma takde rory byrne je

Yo-Ya

232# weta_studio

harap2 macam tu la....

yang mengkritikan pasti ada coz manusia katakan....

emmmmm

mungkin betul atau sebaliknya......

tapi yang pasti mereka bertiga ada dalam race F1 2010.....

adakah akan timbul konspirasi....

selain sistem point terdapat beberapa peraturan untuk di ikuti oleh setiap team :



The ‘top ten tyre’ rule
Withrefuelling banned this year, the requirement for the top ten qualifiersto start the race on the fuel load they qualified on was to be removed.However the Commission has decided to continue handicapping the top tenqualifiers by making them start the race on the tyres they qualified:

Cars having participated in Q3 must start the race on the same set of tyres with which their grid time was set.
F1 Commission statement

Presumably an exception will be made in the event of rain during qualifying or the race.
Disappointingly,this means we will not get to see ‘pure’ qualifying in 2010, as thequickest drivers will be compromised by tyre choice.
As I’vealready said here, I think this is needless meddling with the ruleswhich will at best have a minimal effect on the quality of racing in2010.



2011 double diffuser ban
ouble diffusers will be banned in 2011 if the Commission’s proposal is accepted.
Thiswill cut the amount of downforce the cars can generate and reducecornering speeds. Whether it will help cars follow more closely

Yo-Ya

ni ada sedikit sejarah sistem point dalam f1.

Finishing position	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10
1991-2002	10	6	4	3	2	1
2003-2009	10	8	6	5	4	3	2	1
2010 Proposal 1	25	20	15	10	8	6	5	3	2	1
2010 Proposal 2	25	18	15	12	10	8	6	4	2	1

233# ShadowChaser aku suka FIA lebih memihak pada MercGp

weta_studio

235# Yo-Ya tak tahu samada ada konspirasi or tidak mcm tahun lepas

cuma tahun ni rasanya lebih pada budget kot pasa ada team yg takde budget je

Other changesTherewill be a further reduction in the number of tyres a team may use ateach weekend, with 11 sets of four now available instead of 14.
Thisis good news for Bridgestone, who will now have to supply far fewertyres in 2010 than they were expecting. It may even be interpreted asan attempt to get them to reverse their decision to leave the sport atthe end of this year by reducing their costs.

ganti dgn sime tyre utk tahun depan
