Regulatory Framework

In Simple Terms

F1 is governed by four main rulebooks: the International Sporting Code (general racing rules), plus three F1-specific regulations covering technical specifications, sporting conduct, and financial matters. These documents are regularly updated and work together to ensure fair competition.

• Four core regulatory documents govern F1: ISC, Technical Regulations, Sporting Regulations, and Financial Regulations
• These regulations are amended periodically to adapt to changing circumstances in the sport
• All four document sets must be followed equally by teams, drivers, and officials
• The regulations cover every aspect of F1 from car design to driver conduct to team finances
