FIA Council Meeting
By Cathal March 30 2005
The world motorsport council met today the 30th of March in Paris to discuss about the rules and regulations, these are what they had to say about F1.
The Technical Regulations will remain unchanged for 2005, 2006 and 2007. However, a proposal for change, unanimously supported by the Teams, would be considered by the WMSC.

Something Paul Stoddart on behalf of 8 other Formula One teams had been campaigning about to stop the FIA constantly changing the rules. I wonder if they sent a message to Stoddart about his activities in Melbourne, obviously haven't publicly said anything.

The current rule which places no limit on the number of tyre manufacturers competing in the Championship would still remain in force at least until 2008.

This is a good move in my opinion as i think their needs to be another tyre manufacture in F1 if the minnow teams are going to get anything out of their tyre manufacturer.

The Teams would be invited to discuss the 2008 Formula One Technical Regulations in a meeting on April 15, 2005, with further meetings during the summer if necessary. In accordance with the requirements of the Concorde Agreement, the new regulations would be published by the FIA no later than December 31, 2005.

Thats of course if the teams sign the new concorde agreement, which Toyota boss hinted last week that they were siding on the Bernie side and expect many teams to follow.
