Extinct in 2002, the 107% rule will return next season in F1 . Several teams pushed for the establishment of this rule after the arrival of new teams in 2010, deemed too slow and potentially dangerous. "In 2011, a pilot with the best qualifying time will be greater than 107% the fastest time in Q1 will not be allowed to start the race, " FIA said Wednesday after a World Council.
This decision will force new teams to redouble efforts not lie beyond 107% of Q1. These new teams ( Lotus , HRT Virgin more likely a fourth in 2011) , however good progress since the beginning of the season and sign regular chronos below 107% . But a pilot is not safe from a failure during a qualifying session disrupted . In this case , the FIA has planned a parade . " In exceptional circumstances , if a pilot makes a time ' correct ' during practice , the Commissioners may allow it to start. If several drivers are in this case , the commissioners will determine the order of the grid ".
If the rule will eliminate 107% of the cars too slow from the qualifying stage , another rule was approved to prevent " potentially dangerous behaviors , slow or erratic , the statement said. The Commissioners will be notified of such misconduct and will take measures accordingly . In addition , pilots can not perform a lap over a limit set by the FIA at each Grand Prix . This rule will ensure that the drivers do not drive too slowly for their turn to start up or deceleration .
