Formula 1-the teams have reached an agreement on an economic straightjacket that gets tighter and tighter in the coming years.
It writes the BBC.
From 2021 was long since introduced a budget ceiling of 175 million u.s. dollars, equivalent to $ 1.2 billion in an attempt to reduce the gap between the teams at the top and the bottom of the Formula 1.
As a result of coronakrisen the top ten teams in the motor sport kongeklasse the last few months talked about to cut a further $ 30 million (204 million) of the ceiling in the next season.
It is the teams have now been agreed, writes the BBC.
It means that budgetloftet in 2021 will be $ 145 million – or about one billion crowns.
at the same time, writes the BBC that budgetloftet fall to 140 million in 2022 and to 135 million u.s. dollars in the years from 2023 to 2025.
in Order to create even more competition, so is Formula 1-the teams also agreed to introduce a number of benefits to the worst team and handicap the best teams.
There are thus limitations on how much money the top teams are allowed to use in the field, called ‘research and development’, which among other things deals with the aerodynamics.
Out from a given economic framework, as the teams are allowed to spend on ‘research and development’, may the best team in the 2020 season, just use the 90 percent in 2021.
The second-best team must use 2.5 percent more and so forth. This means that the worst team can use all of 112.5 percent in the ‘research and development’, writes the BBC.
From the 2022 season, extended the scheme, which intends to increase the sporting competition.
This means that the best teams from 2022 only allowed to use 70 percent on ‘research and development’, while the worst teams can use 115 percent. The intervals be increased from 2.5 to 5 percent.
the BBC writes that the changes must be approved by The International Motorsportsunion (FIA) next week, but it is expected to be a formality.
