The governing body for Formula One, the FIA, has introduced new rules to ensure that cars are more visually distinctive by painting or covering 55% of their surface area. This move came after concerns that teams were leaving cars bare to save weight.

According to the commission, this regulation aims to enhance visual differentiation between cars amidst significant upcoming changes to engine and aerodynamic rules.

Additionally, discussions were held regarding a mandatory two pitstop rule for Grand Prix races, although no agreement was reached, and talks are set to continue next year.
