Fuel Lines in Cockpit Prohibition

In Simple Terms

For safety reasons, fuel lines cannot run through the driver's cockpit area. This keeps fuel away from the driver in case of accidents or leaks, reducing fire and injury risks.

• Fuel lines must be routed outside the cockpit to protect the driver from fuel exposure
• This is a safety regulation designed to minimize fire hazards in crashes
• Teams must design fuel system routing that completely avoids the cockpit area
• Any fuel line passing through the cockpit violates this regulation
