TCC Opportunities

Chapter: B

In Simple Terms

Teams are limited to specific testing opportunities throughout the year: one private 5-day test and two public 3-day tests before the season starts, plus a 1-day test after the season ends. They can also do tire testing (up to 40 car days) and one 1-day substitute driver test. These rules prevent teams from gaining unfair advantages through excessive testing.

Pre-season testing limited to one 5-day private test and two 3-day public tests
Post-season testing restricted to one 1-day test only
Out-of-competition tire testing capped at 40 car days maximum
One additional 1-day test allowed for substitute drivers
