We’ve entered the second a part of this lengthy 2024 System 1 season, and all of the groups have already used virtually all of the components obtainable in keeping with the laws.
In Hungary, aside from reliability points, the groups will make heavy use of part rotation to keep away from penalties on this very lengthy calendar of 24 occasions, additionally as a result of the circuit requires the engine to be at full energy solely in small sections and on the principle straight.
The reliability of the vehicles has all the time been a vital consider successful World Championships, and it’s much more so for the reason that laws restrict the variety of components that may be changed on a automobile, notably these associated to the ability unit and people associated to the gearbox and transmission.
In response to the laws, throughout the 2024 System 1 season, a driver could not use greater than 4 ICEs, MGU-Hs, MGU-Ks, and turbochargers (TC), 2 batteries (ES), 2 digital management items (CE), and eight exhaust techniques.
It’s price noting that Max Verstappen, Pierre Gasly, Daniel Ricciardo, and Yuki Tsunoda have already used all the ability items obtainable, Perez has already taken a penalty for changing the ICE in England, Leclerc has used all of the MGU-Hs obtainable, whereas Valtteri Bottas and Alex Albon are already in penalty territory for utilizing the third management unit and battery pack.

The miniaturization of some parts to scale back house for aerodynamic functions has made sure components just like the gearbox and transmission extra fragile, however potential accidents can clearly weigh much more. For instance, because of incidents in earlier GPs, the Williams vehicles of Logan Sargeant and Alex Albon have used 4 of the 5 components obtainable. Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez are additionally near penalties for having used 4 transmissions.
