The championship is due to be contested over a series of races, or Grands Prix, held around the world. Drivers and teams are scheduled to compete for the titles of World Drivers' Champion and World Constructors' Champion respectively.

Team changes

McLaren announced that they would change from using Renault power units to ones built by Mercedes, resuming the McLaren-Mercedes partnership that ran between 1995 and 2014.[20] Racing Point will become known as Aston Martin. The name change was brought about by the team's part owner Lawrence Stroll investing in the Aston Martin marque.[29] Renault will become known as Alpine.[9]

Driver changes

Sebastian Vettel is set to leave Ferrari at the end of the 2020 championship.[30] The four-time World Drivers' Champion will have raced for the team for six seasons. Vettel's seat will be taken by Carlos Sainz Jr., who will leave McLaren.[16] Daniel Ricciardo is due to move from Renault to McLaren where he will replace Sainz.[19] Ricciardo is due to be replaced by double world champion Fernando Alonso, who will drive in Alpine's first season, having last raced in 2018 for McLaren.[11] Sergio Pérez is set to leave Racing Point as they become Aston Martin at the end of 2020.[31] Pérez had previously signed a contract to drive for the team until 2022.[32] Vettel is due to replace Pérez for 2021 onwards.[14][33] Romain Grosjean and Kevin Magnussen, who had raced for Haas since 2016 and 2017 respectively, are set to leave the team at the end of 2020.[34]

The provisional 2021 calendar consists of twenty-three events, subject to the naming of an additional event in April, contract extensions for two current events and approval from the World Motorsport Council.

Calendar expansion and changes

Liberty Media, the sport's commercial rights holders, announced that there would be scope for the 2021 calendar to expand beyond the planned twenty-two races of the 2020 calendar.[36] The sporting regulations were amended to allow for a maximum of twenty-five Grands Prix per year.[37]

  • The Dutch Grand Prix is due to be revived,[38] with the race scheduled to take place at the Circuit Zandvoort.[39][40] The race will mark the first time the Dutch Grand Prix has been run since 1985. The Dutch Grand Prix had been included on the 2020 calendar, but was cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.[41]
  • The Saudi Arabian Grand Prix is due to make its debut, with a night race to be held on a temporary circuit in the city of Jeddah.[42] Further plans to move the Grand Prix to Qiddiya in the future were also made public.[43] The race is scheduled to take place at night, the third venue to host a night race after the Singapore and the Bahrain Grands Prix. Plans to hold a Grand Prix in Qiddiya from 2023 had been in place since January 2020.[44]
  • The Vietnamese Grand Prix would have made its debut, with the race scheduled to take place in the capital Hanoi on the Hanoi Street Circuit. The Vietnamese Grand Prix had been included on the 2020 calendar, but was cancelled in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.[45] The Grand Prix was dropped from the 2021 calendar because of the arrest on corruption charges of a key official responsible for the race in Hanoi.[46]

Further changes to the calendar are planned following the disruption to the 2020 championship brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic:

Liberty Media was also reported to have come to an agreement in principle with race organisers to host a second race in the United States. Plans to hold the race at a circuit in Miami Gardens were unveiled,[56][57] but the plan was suspended due to the pandemic. A second plan to move the Brazilian Grand Prix from São Paulo to Rio de Janiero was also suspended.[58]

Regulation changes

The 2021 championship was due to introduce significant changes to the regulations, including the sport's governance and the sporting rules but these were delayed in March 2020 in response to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.[59] These rule changes will instead be introduced in 2022.[60]

Financial regulation

The championship is due to introduce a budget cap, with teams limited to spending a maximum of $145 million per year.[61][62][d] Teams will be required to use more commercially available materials and to submit their annual expenditure.[63] Some teams argued to further reduce the budget cap to $100 million, citing concerns that the long-term financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic threatens the future of as many as four teams.[64][65] Formula One managing director Ross Brawn stated that the sport's intention is to reduce the budget cap further in the coming years.[62]

The value of the budget cap is set for twenty-one races; each additional race increases the budget cap by $1 million, and vice versa: each race removed from the scheduled twenty-one race calendar deducts the budget cap by $1 million.[66] However, the budget cap does not include marketing budget, driver's salary and the salaries of the team's top three executives. There will be additional restrictions put in place dictating how prize money can be spent.[67] The cap will only apply to expenditure related to car performance, which will remain in place until 2026.[66] In the event that a team breaks the financial regulations, the team can be penalised in a combination of three separate ways. For a procedural violation teams will be fined on a case-by-case basis. Teams can be given a range of punishments for exceeding their annual budget which include being deducted championship points, having reduced testing time, a race ban, or—for the most severe cases—disqualification from the championship.[66]

Technical regulations

The FIA will mandate an outer floor change designed to reduce downforce levels.[68] Teams will be limited in what components can be modified for the 2021 season,[69] this requirement was introduced to ease financial pressures on teams brought about by the coronavirus pandemic.[70] McLaren were given permission to modify additional components on their car to accommodate the switch from Renault to Mercedes engines,[71] which prompted the FIA to introduce a token system.[72] Under the system, teams will be given a series of tokens which can be exchanged for the introduction of specific component upgrades.[73]

The "dual-axis steering" system developed by Mercedes in 2020 is banned starting from 2021.[74] The dual-axis steering system allows the driver to adjust the toe of the front wheels to optimise mechanical grip by pulling or pushing on the steering wheel.[75]

Sporting regulations

Teams will be required to allow a driver who has competed in fewer than two Grands Prix to replace one of their race drivers in a Friday practice session over the course of the season. Whilst these rules are intended to give a chance to more non-Formula One drivers to test a Formula One car, the wording of this rule means that teams satisfy the requirement if one of their regular drivers is in their rookie season.[76][77]

Race weekend structure

For the 2021 season the schedule of a race weekend is due to be revised. Under the pre-existing regulations a race weekend spans four days with the Thursday before the race being reserved for media and promotional events and scrutineering; however, under the new regulations all of Thursday's events will be moved to the Friday morning with the times between Friday's activities being reduced. Cars will be under parc fermé conditions following the end of free practice three instead of qualifying, further restricting teams and drivers making major changes to setups ahead of the race.[78]

Notes

  1. ^ In the history of Formula One, Formula One regulations were first introduced during the 1946 Grand Prix season. These were adopted for every race in 1948, and were formally organised into a championship in 1950.
  2. ^ Fernando Alonso took two years out of Formula One, and as part of the driver numbering system his old number is no longer reserved for him meaning he will have the option to select a new number or retain his number 14, unless it has been claimed by someone else.
  3. ^ a b Grand Prix subject to contract renewal.
  4. ^ Teams had originally agreed to a budget cap of $175 million per year,[63] but this figure was revised to $145 million in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.[61][62]
