Changes notification

In Simple Terms

Before F1 teams can make changes to their cars or operations, they must tell the FIA (the sport's governing body) about these changes beforehand. This rule ensures the FIA knows what modifications are coming and can verify they're legal before the race weekend begins.

• Teams must notify the FIA before implementing any changes
• Notification must happen before the competition where changes will be used
• This allows the FIA to review and approve modifications in advance
• Helps maintain fairness by preventing secret or unauthorized upgrades
