FIA gives Mosley the green light

By on

The World Motor Sport Council approved the rules suggested by Max Mosley, president of the FIA, during a meeting in Paris today. Earlier today, we already reported that the Formula One Teams that wish to compete in the 2008 FIA Formula One World Championship must sign up by the end of this month.

The Teams who will enter the 2008 F1 Championship will be invited by the FIA to begin a series of meetings to finalise the regulations for 2008.

An FIA statement said: "The regulations which affect the design of the cars must be finalised before 30 June 2006 to give the competing teams sufficient time to design and develop their 2008 cars. The regulations not affecting the design of the cars can be modified at any point up to the start of the 2008 season.
"A regulation can be modified following a majority vote of the Sporting Working Group, consisting of one senior representative from each team, and ratification by the Formula One Commission and the World Motor Sport Council."
