The rule prohibiting team orders will be “deleted” from the regulations in 2011, the FIA announced on Friday.<\/p>\n
After a meeting in Monaco of the World Motor Sport Council, the sport’s governing body said the controversial article 39.1 “is deleted” from the rules.<\/p>\n
The regulation – introduced in 2002 – came under the spotlight this season, when Ferrari was penalised $100,000 but otherwise escaped without sanction for switching the order of Felipe Massa and Fernando Alonso by issuing a clandestine radio message.<\/p>\n
Now, teams simply face the prospect of bringing “the sport into disrepute” according to the standard article 151c “and any other relevant provisions” will apply to their actions during grands prix.<\/p>\n
Also rubber-stamped on Friday was the new four-cylinder turbo engine formula for 2013, including a five-engine per driver limit in 2013 reducing to four engines in 2014.<\/p>\n
In 2011, gearboxes must be used for five consecutive races instead of four as was the case this year, and cars will feature moveable rear wings to boost overtaking.<\/p>\n
