Wheel Bodywork

In Simple Terms

Teams can only use specific wheel covers and decorative parts that are officially approved by F1. These parts are measured and positioned using a special wheel coordinate system to ensure they meet the exact technical specifications.

• Only wheel bodywork explicitly permitted in Articles C3.14 and C3.15 is allowed
• All wheel bodywork must be measured against the Wheel Coordinate System as the reference frame
• This prevents teams from adding unauthorized aerodynamic or structural elements to the wheels
• Compliance is verified during technical inspections before and during races
