Mockery of F1 2005 rules!!!!

Enjoy guys ..and positive feedbacks welcomed:-)

Engine and Exhaust:

1) The exhaust's need to be placed right below the peripheral left 75deg chassis bolt nut, resulting in lesser downforce and adding to linear thrust.

2) The cam/valve configuration is subdued so that the engines last for 2 complete races.

3)The engines have to weigh not more than thrice the weight of the driver for better centre of gravity.

4)NOS(Nitrous Oxide) burners can be used in needle injectors, but need to be in consealed cannister's made out of Aluminium Tetroxide Amalgamate(A.T.A).

Aerodynamics and General:

1) Helmates need to be of coconut grade plastic with t20 pilipili packing.

2)The front panels should not be a hollow design, it needs to be complete carbon fibre bonding.

3)Two dimension stickering on the wing is prohibitted, using which can result in $0.00 penalty.

4)No drive by wire technology aid should be employed for accelerator pedals.

5)Drivers should blink tail lights when he knowingly reduces speed from 200mph to 80mph.

6)There is no pit lane speed but each car has to stop for a minimum of 10secs, this will put the pit crew to test.

7)Billboards displaying time and position will not be allowed, this is to test the drivers sense of orientation/time.

8)Each driver will mandatorily have to fight G forces. No gadgets or equipments will be provided to support them in this cause.

9)Ten percent of total earning from each race will now be donated to the Tsunami victims as a precautionary measure.

10)J.K tyre will play a key role in supplying rubber to both Bridgestones and Michelins.

11)In the bahrain track the winner will be chosen by the king.

12)During post race interviews, each driver will be asked a set of three unique questions which will fetch him championship points.

13)The fuel used in all the cars should be of the same quality, FIA will provide the same.

14)Cd's and cassettes inside the car prohibitted, Im sure U know why...

15)Changing the tyre is not allowed until the change in the tyre results in changing the existing tyre to the non existing axle.

16)Any mishaps in the pit lane will disqualify the pit crew for the entire season(summer).

17)Warmup laps will now be a true test of the drivers spirit and cars endurance as they have been permitted to overtake so that the reason of qualifying is beaten, which means qualifying and preq... is mere entertainment to the pubic.

18)Indian airlines is offering special prices with tickets starting with an initial bid of Re.1 only for the malaysian Grand Prix.

19)To improve traction cars can now use four tyres in the rear, depending on the budget.(Note: Not compulsary)

20)Renault's Fernando Alsonso is prohibitted from using hair gel as they claim to have destroyed several helmates last season due to the same.

21)If Indian driver comes within first 3 fastest cars, the race is unanimously abandoned...and the driver is asked to produce his drivers lisence for authentification.

22)All drivers should gulp down an inch long LSD strip, this will test their true pontential and determination to win.

23)The steerings need to be wooden to encourage employment to skilled carpenters.(Thought is a humble donation by Mr Laloo).

Hey, you can't call this mockery. After all, there did exist an F1 car with 4 wheels (but at the front). LOL

It was called the Tyrrell P34

I'm sure DC and Schumi would support that rule!

The Tyrrell was one heck of a car. It was light years ahead of every other racecar of it's time.

I think they finally banned it. There was anothe model with a suction fan at the bottom (to improve downforce).

Here are some articles on the Tyrrell. according to them, the car wasn't banned but the project was abandoned.

The car was great but, Goodyear wasn't successful in providing the right kind of tyres needed for this car.

Shan2nu, Thanx a lot for the links mate...Felt really bad after learning the goodyear snaggle...realy sad that such an ingeneous effort was down the drain... Actually if u look at the design, u can immediately see that the drag produces by 2 big wheels in the front is reduced by 50% by employing these little wheels,,amazing. Also I can say that 4 small tyres can produce so much more traction which can win races on wet tracks...Also, if the swirl of air from all 4tyres are directed effectively under the side ducts, downforce can be enhanced...unbelievable engineering man....
