Accelerator pedal control

In Simple Terms

Drivers must control how much power goes to the wheels using only one foot pedal (the accelerator/throttle), which has to be located inside the cockpit safety cell. They can't use any other method or device to control acceleration.

• Only a single foot accelerator pedal is allowed to control engine torque to the wheels
• The pedal must be physically mounted inside the Survival Cell (the cockpit)
• No alternative acceleration control methods or devices are permitted
• This ensures standardized driver control across all F1 cars
