The FIA has confirmed for 2017 F1 drivers and teams will no longer be able to stockpile power unit elements without incu🉐rring additional penalties, after Lewis Hamiಞlton and Mercedes exposed a loophole in the current regulations.

At the B💧elgian Grand Prix Hamilton racked up a 55-place grid penalty, 50 for use of additional power units and five for a gearbox change, but🍬 only started on the back row of the grid as all penalties were applied to one round.

When this occurred in the opening two seasons of the hybrid power unit era time penalties could also be applied, while in 2014 a grid penalty could b⭕e carried over to a second race.

As a result, from next season the loophole will be closed with penalties being held over for conseq🐻uential races when the stockpiled engine elements are💙 used by drivers.

"During any single event, if a driver introduces more than one of a power unit element that is subject to penalty," the statement from the FIA reꦜad. "Only the last element fitted may be used at subsequent events without further penalty. This is to prevent the stockpiling of spare power unit elements."

In effect, grid penalties will be applied over more than one event 🦄in order to disincentive teams from stock♌piling elements for future use of the season.
