Transferable and Free Supply Components Definition

Chapter: C17

In Simple Terms

F1 allows teams to buy certain car components from other teams or suppliers. These components come in two types - Transferable and Free Supply - and both must follow the same technical rules. This lets smaller teams use better parts without having to design and build everything themselves.

  • Teams can purchase Transferable Components (TRC) and Free Supply Components (FSC) from suppliers or other teams
  • Both TRC and FSC must meet identical technical regulations
  • Components can be designed and manufactured by the supplying team or an approved third party
  • This system allows Customer Teams to remain competitive by accessing high-quality components
Official FIA Text

Transferable Components (TRC) and Free Supply Components (FSC) design and manufacture owned by Supplying Team or third party but can be supplied to Customer Team. FSC follow identical technical regulations as TRC.
