Article C10.3.10
Rear Suspension Member Attachment
Chapter: C10
In Simple Terms
F1 teams cannot attach any rear suspension parts directly to the engine/power unit. The suspension must connect to the car's chassis instead. This rule ensures the power unit isn't stressed by suspension forces and maintains consistent technical specifications across all teams.
- Rear suspension components must attach to the chassis, not the power unit
- This prevents the engine from bearing structural loads meant for the chassis
- Ensures fair competition by standardizing how teams design their suspension geometry
- Violation indicates a fundamental design flaw in the car's construction
Official FIA Text
No rear suspension member may be attached to the Power Unit.
