Official: Radio communications once again authorized for strategy
The team directors have reached a unanimous agreement to once again allow radio communications regarding driver strategy. The decision takes effect starting with the Melbourne race.
Gathered urgently this morning to decide on a return to the former qualification system, the team directors also agreed to relax the restrictions on radio communication.
A unanimous agreement has been reached to authorize radio messages concerning strategy. This agreement applies from the Australian Grand Prix. The drivers were heard: they had reminded that they would only be following instructions before the race at the risk of becoming « robots » according to Fernando Alonso.
On the other hand, many other prohibitions remain, such as the ban on reminding a teammate of their lap time.
