The FIA has published revised jump start rules for Formula 1 to avoid confusion over car movement not being detected by onboard sensors.

As revealed by Motorsport.com over the Chinese Grand Prix weekend, teams discussed last week a tweak to the regulations to clear up an aspect of the regulations that had caused unease. Previously, jump starts were judged entirely on whether the FIA-supplied sensors fitted to cars had picked up movement before the start signal was given.

” While Norris’ movement in Saudi Arabia is the most recent example, several drivers have been picked up in recent years for having appeared to move before lights went out but not triggering the sensor. Valtteri Bottas was cleared for a jump start in the 2020 Hungarian Grand Prix, while one year earlier then Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel similarly escaped punishment in Japan.
