Team Changes

[edit]
  • After the fallout between parent team Red Bull and engine supplier Renault in 2015, Toro Rosso will return to using Renault power in 2016 after the relationship between Red Bull and Renault was renewed[4].
  • Sauber will use one year-old Ferrari power units, mirroring the arrangement between Ferrari and Scuderia Toro Rosso in 2016[33].
  • The parent company of MRT went into administration in January 2017.[39] The administrators failed to find a buyer and the company collapsed later that same month,[40][41] ultimately closing down entirely in March.[42]

Driver Changes

[edit]

Regulation Changes

[edit]

Technical Changes

[edit]
  • The technical regulations governing bodywork design will be revised with the objective of improving lap times by four to five seconds over the 2016 generation of cars.[58] These changes will include:[59]
    • The width of the front wing will increase to 1,800 mm (70.9 in).
    • The rear wing will be lowered by 150 mm (5.9 in) and its position moved back by 200 mm (7.9 in).
    • The leading edge of the barge boards will be brought forward to allow teams more freedom in controlling airflow.
    • The width of the front and rear tyres will be increased to allow cars to generate more mechanical grip.
    • The minimum weight of the car plus the driver will increase, with teams allowed to use 105 kg of fuel to account for the increase in minimum weight.
  • The token system used to regulate power unit development—where the power unit was divided into individual areas, and each area assigned a points value with development of these areas deducting points from a manufacturer's overall points quota—will be abandoned.[60]
  • Restrictions will be placed on the dimensions, weight and the materials used to build each individual component of the power unit.[61]
  • The cost of a power unit supply will be reduced by €1 million in 2017 ahead of a further reduction in 2018.[61]
  • Cameras will no longer be permitted to be mounted on stalks, located on the nose of the car.[62]

Sporting Changes

[edit]
  • Power unit suppliers will have an "obligation to supply", mandating that they supply power units to any team without an agreement.[60] The rule was introduced following the breakdown in the relationship between Red Bull Racing, sister team Scuderia Toro Rosso and power unit supplier Renault at the end of the 2015 season that left both teams in limbo until deals could be arranged.
