Additional Sensors and Logging

Chapter: B11.8

In Simple Terms

Teams cannot add extra sensors and data-logging equipment during young driver testing. However, during tire testing, they're allowed to use additional sensors specifically to measure tire performance, but only if both the tire supplier and the FIA approve it first.

  • Young driver testing: No additional sensors or logging devices permitted
  • Tire testing: Extra sensors allowed only for measuring tire state/performance
  • Prior approval required from both the tire supplier and FIA before fitting any sensors during tire testing
  • Maintains fair testing conditions and prevents teams from gaining unauthorized technical advantages
Official FIA Text

For Young Driver testing: Additional logging and sensors are prohibited. For tyre testing: Additional sensors may only be fitted to measure tyre state and must be agreed with Tyre Supplier and FIA in advance.
