Chapter: C8
In Simple Terms
F1 teams must get FIA approval for how they wire their control systems in the car. The wiring must be designed so that the sensors and parts that control the car's performance are electrically separated from other sensors, preventing any interference or cheating through cross-contamination.
- All control system wiring looms require FIA approval before use
- Control sensors and actuators must be electrically isolated from non-control sensors
- Prevents interference and ensures fair competition
- Teams must follow strict technical specifications for electrical architecture
