• REGULATION CHANGES
Evolution, not revolution: that’s the name of the game for F1 in 2020 (the revolution’s
coming in 2021). But despite large swathes of rule stability this season, there have
still been some subtle tweaks to the regulations over the winter. Here’s what to look
out for in 2020.
CHEQUERED FLAG AT THE END OF RACES
The 2019 regulations saw the chequered flag replaced by a chequered light panel as the official signal
marking the end of the race.
The flag was still seen last year, Jean Alesi most famously flying it for Charles Leclerc’s victory at Monza.
But a glitch at the Japanese Grand Prix saw the chequered panel illuminate a lap before the end of the race,
causing the official results to be counted from there – hence the revision back to the good old-fashioned flag
as the official race-ender for 2020.
LONGER CURFEW
There’s good news for mechanics in the 2020 regulations, who’ll be able to enjoy a (theoretical) extra hour in
bed on the Thursday and Friday of race weekends, thanks to the mandatory curfew – during which time teams’
mechanics are forbidden from working on their cars, or even being within the confines of the circuit – being
extended from eight hours to nine. Teams are allowed to break the curfew twice in one season without
receiving a penalty.
‘SHARK FINS’
With a look ahead to a design feature that could be on the 2021 cars, for 2020, teams will all have to
create a small plate on the engine cover of their cars – similar to McLaren’s early-2019 wedge on the MCL34
– with this ‘shark fin’ set to house the drivers’ numbers, making it easier for fans to distinguish between each
team’s two machines. There will be very little aerodynamic impact on the cars, mind (except a very mild one
during cornering), so don’t expect this rule change to decide any championships!
A RELAXING OF WEIGHBRIDGE AND JUMP START PENALTIES
When Pierre Gasly missed the display signals calling him to the weighbridge during Free Practice 2 at the
2019 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, by the letter of the law the stewards had to punish the Frenchman with a pit-lane start.
Those rules have been softened for 2020, allowing the stewards more discretion and giving them jurisdiction
to hand out less strident penalties if they see fit.
Jump starts, too, used to incur either a drive-through or a 10-second stop-go penalty. However, the 2020
regulations give stewards the option to dish out less harsh five- and 10-second race time penalties.

• REGULATION CHANGES
RESTRICTION ON METAL IN THE FRONT WING
No one likes to see a small tag from one car’s front wing to another’s rear wheel result in a puncture
(not least the puncturee...), so to try and limit the risk the rules now dictate that the first 50mm of front wing
endplates have to be made purely of carbon fibre. Any metal elements - like fasteners or inserts used to
attach the front wing - are only allowed 30mm back from the leading edge of the endplate.
Let’s hope that helps reduce the Ben Hur moments…
BRAKE DUCTS ARE NOW ‘LISTED PARTS’
The air ducts used to cool the brakes are now categorised as ‘Listed Parts’, meaning they’ll need to be
designed by the teams themselves, rather than bought in from another company or team. Other Listed Parts
include: the car’s bodywork, roll structures, front impact structures and the survival cell.
LESS ELECTRONIC MEDDLING IN THE STARTS
2020 will see the drivers given even more control over their starts, with 90% of the engine’s torque being
controlled directly by the driver’s command on their clutch paddle or paddles (which the rules also now
stipulate need to be “pull-type” paddles).
Drivers will still have stall prevention and bite point finder functions available to them – but the onus is now
even more on them to make sure they get a good getaway.
AN EXTRA MGU-K TO PLAY WITH
Drivers can now use three Motor Generator Unit – Kinetic (or MGU-Ks, to give the part its hipper name)
over the course of the season rather than two, bringing the allocation into line with the number of Internal
Combustion Engine (ICE), Turbo Charger (TC) and Motor Generator Unit – Heat (MGU-H) elements they’re
allowed per year. That should mean less penalties in 2020, given that nine out of the 20 drivers exceeded
their MGU-K limit in 2019.
Drivers are still only allowed two Energy Stores and two Control Electronics per year, however…
LESS FUEL OUTSIDE THE TANK
The 2020 Technical Regulations limit the amount of fuel allowed to course around the car outside of the
fuel survival cell to just 250ml – down from two litres in 2019 – all of which should be used for “the normal
running of the engine”, according to the regs. That’s to deter teams from seeking any potential benefit to be
had from keeping large amounts of fuel outside of the tank.

BRILLIANT BOTTAS ROMPS TO EMPHATIC VICTORY IN AUSTRALIAN SEASON-OPENER
As the 2019 season finally began in earnest at the Australian Grand Prix, Mercedes’
Valtteri Bottas enjoyed a sensational start to his year with a dominant display in
Melbourne, leading home team mate Lewis Hamilton for a Mercedes one-two ahead
of the Red Bull of Max Verstappen.
Bottas finished the race over 20 seconds clear of the field, and even claimed a bonus point for the fastest lap
of the race to come away from Albert Park with a full 26 points.
Ferrari were forced to play third best in Australia, Sebastian Vettel finishing fourth for the Scuderia, one place
up on his team mate Charles Leclerc, who was called off the attack on the German late in the race. Haas’
Kevin Magnussen headed off a hugely competitive and closely fought midfield in sixth, ahead of the Renault
of Nico Hulkenberg and the Alfa Romeo of Kimi Raikkonen in eighth.
The race as it happened
The seeds of Valtteri Bottas’ victory were sewn off the line in Albert Park, the Finn rocketing out of his grid slot
to head Hamilton by the time they reached Turn 1. Behind, Daniel Ricciardo’s home race got off to a nightmare
start, as he got launched over the grass at the pit exit as he tried to squeeze past Racing Point’s Sergio Perez
and ripped his Renault’s front wing off, the resulting damage appearing to give the Australian a handling
imbalance on his R.S.19.
Down at Turns 1 and 2, Leclerc came within a whisker of blotting his Ferrari copybook early on as he
attempted a move around the outside of Sebastian Vettel, nearly wiping the two scarlet cars out of the race
before the end of the first lap.
Further down the order, McLaren’s Carlos Sainz enjoyed a strong getaway from P18 to climb three positions –
but having ended up in that lowly grid place after a frustrating qualifying yesterday where we was blocked by
Robert Kubica, Sainz’s tough start to the year continued when his MCL34 had a fiery expiration on lap 11.
At the front of the field, Bottas looked comfortable ahead of Hamilton, while behind, Max Verstappen was
showing that there was pace in the Honda-powered Red Bull, the late-stopping Dutchman moving from fourth to
third on lap 32 with a brilliant move around the outside of Turn 3 on Vettel. Both the Ferrari man and his new
SF90 seemed out of sorts on race day in Melbourne, with Vettel asking his race engineer at one point ‘Why
are we so slow?’
No-one on the Ferrari pit wall seemed to have an answer, and as Verstappen got clear and went after the
second-placed Hamilton – who ultimately managed to hold on until the race end, aided by Verstappen slewing
off the track at Turn 1 in his hot pursuit – Vettel had to suffer the ignominy of team mate Leclerc being told to
hold station behind him, the Ferraris cruising around in formation in fourth and fifth.

• RACE REPORT
Lap 30 saw Ricciardo capping off his miserable Renault debut when the team retired him with a suspected
issue, while a lap before, Haas’ Romain Grosjean pulled off to the side of the track for his own retirement.
The cause? Amazingly, the Frenchman’s front-left tyre appeared to have been fitted incorrectly in his pit stop,
the self-same issue that forced his withdrawal from a strong points-paying position in 2018.
With a handful of laps to go, and with around a 25-second advantage, Bottas was so comfortable that he
radioed into the Mercedes pit to ask if he should pit for fresh tyres in order to try and set the fastest lap of the
race to try and claim an extra point. Mercedes replied strongly in the negative, but the Finn had enough life
left in his tyres to set it anyway and round out a perfect weekend, with a full 26 points to his name.
“I don’t know what to say,” said a stunned Bottas after crossing the line to record win number four of his
career, while also heading a Mercedes one-two for the first time since he last won at Abu Dhabi in 2017.
“I don’t know what just happened. It was definitely my best race ever.”
Verstappen had never run in the top three at Albert Park until today, but showed that there was front-troubling
pace in his Red Bull-Honda RB15 to claim the final podium position - Honda’s first since 2008.
But it was back to the drawing board for Ferrari after the season opener, Vettel crossing the line in fourth a
full 57.1 seconds adrift of Bottas, with Leclerc tucked in obediently behind as Ferrari stuck to the Vettel-biased
plan that they’d announced they’d go for early on in the season.
Behind, Haas’ Kevin Magnussen headed what looks to be a very evenly matched ‘front’ of the midfield,
the Dane in P6 to Toro Rosso’s Daniil Kvyat in P10 separated by less than 10 seconds.
So, the spoils go to Valtteri Bottas who, after failing to score a victory in 2018, has got one under his belt
with just one race down in 2019.
