Article D8.2.1
Determinations by Cost Cap Administration
Chapter: D
In Simple Terms
The Cost Cap Administration can only make official decisions (called 'Determinations') when the Financial Regulations specifically allow them to do so. Once they make such a decision, it becomes binding on all teams and is treated as part of the official rules.
- Cost Cap Administration can only issue decisions when expressly authorized by the Financial Regulations
- All Determinations issued are legally binding on teams and cannot be disputed
- Determinations become part of the official Financial Regulations once issued
- This ensures consistency and prevents arbitrary rule enforcement
Official FIA Text
