Changes

Rule changes

On 22 December 2006, the FIA released the technical regulations for the 2009 season.

  • Along with changes to bodywork, vehicle weight and tyre size, the document includes details of a "Kinetic Energy Recovery System", or KERS. This is a regenerative brake device that is designed to recover some of the vehicle's kinetic energy that is normally dissipated as heat during braking. The recovered energy could be stored electrically, in a battery or supercapacitor, or mechanically, in a flywheel, for use as a source of additional accelerative power at the driver's discretion.
  • There will also be a cap on team budgets starting in the 2009 season.

Broadcasting changes

  • The BBC regain coverage of Formula One in the United Kingdom after losing it to ITV in 1996. The deal will last for 5 years and includes TV, radio and online coverage rights.

Possible Changes

Possible Rule Changes

  • The rule that forces the authorities to close the pit lane when a safety car is deployed may be abolished by the start of the 2009 season. This follows actions from Rubens Barrichello in Australia, and Nick Heidfeld in Spain, needing to pit otherwise they would run out of fuel. Both drivers got a 10 second stop-and-go penalty, and it is this that Heidfeld wants abolished.

Rumours

Rumoured regulation changes

  • Tyre-warming blankets will be banned.

Rumoured driver changes
