Porpoising-related updates to the 2023 Technical Regulations will be submitted to the WMSC 'this week'. F1
Following Formula 1’s switch to ground effect aerodynamics for the 2022 season, several teams found that their challengers were bouncing, a phenomenon called porpoising which is associated with this type of aerodynamic philosophy.problem, though after an uncomfortable Azerbaijan Grand Prix for many drivers thanks to the bouncing, the FIA encountered more voices asking for the governing body to intervene.
That is indeed what happened, with a Technical Directive set to come into play as of the Belgian Grand Prix, relating to the plank and skid blocks underneath the cars, while the FIA also spoke of further changes from 2023 to combat the issue. Red Bull, who have been firmly against any changes, had been urging the FIA to make a swift decision so that focus could turn to the 2023 cars with knowledge of the set regulations, team bossthat “it’s 10 past midnight now for next year and Cinderella’s already left”.
And it would seem that Red Bull and all other teams are close to getting the certainty which they crave, with the updated regulations now set to go before the World Motor Sport Council so that they can be ratified.
