"In t🔯he interest of safety, watches will be considered as jewellery," a new note from race director Niels Wittich said on Saturday.

Hamilton had turned up to Miami decorated by jewellery including eight rings, four necklacꦦes, two earrings, a bracelet and three watches.

He has a 🥂two-race exemption for Miami♏ and Spain for his nose ring which he says cannot be removed, but he did show some compromise by removing his ear piercings on Friday after a meeting with FIA president Mohammed bin Sulayem.

Drivers will reportedly face a major fine and even a po🗹ints deduction if they do not comply with the FIA’s rules.

Toto Wolff on the F1 jewellery ban...

“What was ꦚneeded was a dialogue between Lewis and Mohamed,” Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff said.

“It is clear the regulations are to pro🃏tect the drivers.

“I am sure they will come to a good resolution.”

Hamilton wa💯s fourth in the second practice session, with teammate George Russell going fastest, in a hugely promising session for Mercedeꦛs.

Hamilton previously said about the new FIA rules on wearing jewellery: “I feel like it’s almost like a step ⭕backwards, if you think about the steps we are taking as a sport, and the more important causes that we need to be focused on. 

“I think we’ve made really great strides as a sport. This is such a small thing. I’ve been in the sport for 16 years and I’ve been wearing jewellery꧋ for 16 years. In the car I only ever have my earrings on and my no꧟se ring, of which I can’t even remove. 

“It seems unnecessary for us to get into this spat. So I will try to communicate and work with Mo💞hammed [Ben Sulayem]. I’m here to try to be an ally of the sport, of Mohammed and F1. 

“As I said, I think we’ve gotꦺ bigger fish to fry, bigger things to do, more impact to have. So that’s really where I♈ think the focus should be.” 

“As I said, at least two of them - one I can’t really explain where it is - but it’s platinum that I have, so it’s not magnetic,” he added. “It’s neverꦅ been a safety issue in the past. 

"In 16 years, I’ve had so many MRI scans and not had to take out the platinum becaus🍰e it’s not been a safety issue.” 

Hamilton joki♚ngly added that he could happily amuse himse🅺lf in Miami if the FIA went as far as to ban him from competing. 

“If they stop me, then so be it,” he said. "W♐e’ve got spare drivers, so we’re all🎀 ready and prepped for the weekend. 

"There’s lots to enjಞoy and do in the city anyways, so I’ll be good either way.✨”

Drivers call for individual choice 

168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Pierre Gasly, Alex Albon, 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lance Stroll all offered support 🧜to Hamilton and suggested the drivers should be allowed to make their own choices regarding the☂ risks they take when it comes to wearing jewellery. 

AlphaTauri driver Gasly revealed he also wears a piece of religious jeweller✤y when racing and said he would not feel comfortable drivin❀g without it. 

Hamilton said he❀ would be happy to take the responsibility out of the FIA’s hands.&nbs𒅌p;

“I’m willing to sign a waiver to take responsibility away f✤rom them, If I need to,” he said. “It’s about individuality and being who you are.&nb🌠sp;

“I did try calling💞 Mohammed this morning, but I’m sure he was super busy. I sent him a message just reassuring him that I want to be an ally and that I don’t want to fight with you guys over this. It’s very silly. 

“I’ve not heard back yet, but I’ll try and 𝓰speak to him before the race.”

What are the FIA rules on jewellery and underwear?

The new guidelines ahead of the Miami GP read: “Metallic objects, such as jewellery, in contact with the skin can reduce heat transmission pro💙tection and thus may incꦯrease the risk of burn injuries in the event of a fire.

“The wearing of jewellery durin🌳g the competition can hinder both medical interventions as well as subsequent diagnosis and treatment should it be requiredꦉ following an accident. 

“The presence of jewellery can sꦛlow, due to the risk of “snagging”, the emergency removal of driver safety equipment such as helmet, balaclava, and overalls. 

“In the case that medical imaging is required 🦄to inform diagnosis following an accident the presence of jewellery on the body can cause significant complication and delay. In the worst case the presence of jewellery during imaging may cause further injury. 

“Jewellery in and/or around the airway can pose specific additional risks sh⛄ould it become dis𒀰lodged during an accident and either ingested or inhaled.” 

On the compliant underwear regulation, Wittich said: “The above noted regulation is writtꦫen to ensure 𝔉that the FIA-approved Flame-resistant clothing, including both the outer layer overalls and inner layer in contact with the skin can operate effectively and provide the designed level of protection if exposed to flames."
