Formula 1 race director Charlie Whiting saysꦕ he does not expect there to be a delay for the planned overhaul of the sport’s regulations in 2021 despite concerns from teams over a lack of concrete plans.

F1 officials have identified 2021 as the year to spark a technical shake-up of the sport, with renders of concept cars being drawn up with ꦇteams in recent months.

The referenced media source is missing and needs to be re-embedded.

Revisions to the sporting regulations have also been suggested, while a new commercial agreement will need to be drawn up with teams for 2021, the existing deal o♏nly running to the end of 2020.

Toro Rosso team boss Franz Tost recently said time was “ruꦬnning away🐬” to fix the regulations for 2021, while both Christian Horner and Günther Steiner have expressed doubts minor changes will be able to 168澳洲5最新开奖🍎结果:make much of an immediate impact on F1.

The FIA has said repeatedly it was 168澳洲5最新开奖꧋结果:close to confirming꧙ the regulations for 2021, yet nothing has been♓ rub🎉ber-stamped despite an ever-narrowing window.

However, Whiting stressed at S🤪uzuka earlier this month that there were no plans to postpone the introduction of the new rules beyo♛nd 2021.

“It’sไ taking us a lit🔯tle bit longer than expected,” Whiting said.

“[We are] still talking through the teams, we went through a lot the st🔯uff in the Strat💯egy Group last week, but it’s an ongoing process.

“And it will be 2021, yes.”

The World Motorꦅ Sport Council confirmed some minor tweaks to the technical regulat🀅ions for 2019 last week, including the addition of new rain lights to the rear wing endplates on all cars.

A finalised and complete version of either the sporting or technical regulations has yet🐼 to be made public, though, although the teams do have them in f🃏ull.

The major techni🌜cal change for next season will be revisions to the front and rear wings, made in a bid to aid overtaking and make it easier for cars to follow each other.
