The FIA will monitor the use of the false start system.

      We wrote that starting from the Miami Grand Prix, the FIA will be testing a new "bad start" system. If a car has a very poor start, the system activates the electric part of the power unit, allowing it to safely get off the line and avoid a dangerous situation. FIA single-seater racing director Nicholas Tombazis emphasized that the federation will not allow this system to be used for other purposes. Nicholas Tombazis: "We have made it clear that this system should not be used to gain an advantage. There should not even be the temptation to activate it intentionally to improve position. It will help make a catastrophic start less bad, but it will not make a bad start good. When we first discussed this issue with the teams, we proposed that in the event of this system being activated, a mandatory pit lane drive-through be used at the end of the first lap. The teams refused, arguing that in that case, the situation would be out of their control. We agreed with that. But if we see that we missed something, that teams started using the system for their own benefit, we will definitely intervene. But I hope that won't be necessary."
