On the occasion of the FIA Annual General Assembly Week in Paris, the World Motor Sport Council convened today for the fourth and final meeting of 2021. The meeting was hosted by FIA President Jean Todt with FIA Deputy President for Sport Graham Stoker and council members joining in person and via video conference from locations across the globe. President Todt, presiding over his last World Motor Sport Council meeting expressed gratitude to the members who attended in Paris.
At the start of the meeting a minute’s silence was held in memory of Sir Frank Williams, the founder of the Williams Formula 1 team who passed away in November. He was remembered as a pioneer, an exceptional personality and an exemplary man who leaves a lasting legacy on the sport.

FIA Formula One World Championship
The World Motor Sport Council discussed the remarkable 2021 season, noting that it was undoubtedly the most intense and exciting year of competition in recent memory.
Following the presentation of a report regarding the sequence of events that took place following the incident on Lap 53 of the 2021 FIA Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix on 12 December and in a constant drive for improvement, the FIA President proposed to the World Motor Sport Council that a detailed analysis and clarification exercise for the future with all relevant parties will now take place. This proposal was accepted, and further details can be found in a separate statement.
2026 Power Unit Regulations
The World Council validated the framework for the 2026 Power Unit Regulation and identified the following key objectives:
- A Powerful Environmental Message: 100% sustainable fuel, overall efficiency, and shift of focus to electrical power
- Significant Cost Reduction: technical, operational and financial regulations
- Newcomers: make it possible for them to join the sport at a competitive level
- Protect the Show: powerful and high-revving power unit, car performance, sound, drivers’ ability to race, avoiding excessive differentiation
The 2026 Power Unit Regulations will be based on 4 pillars:
- Retain the 1.6-litre V6 engine
- Increase electrical power to 350kW
- Eliminate the MGU-H
- Introduction of a Power Unit cost cap
A detailed document of the 2026 Power Unit Regulations will be developed and submitted to the World Motor Sport Council in early 2022.
Various refinements to the 2022 Technical Regulations were also approved. This is the product of a close collaboration in between the Formula 1 teams and the FIA.

FIA World Rally Championship
In the sporting regulations, amendments have been made to support the introduction of the new Rally1 hybrid cars at the top level of the discipline, with a strong focus on cost management, safety and sustainability.
The number of engines allowed for each manufacturer has been reduced from three to two, while the use of hybrid units per season (testing not included) for cars entered to score points in the Manufacturers’ Championship has been limited to a pool of nine over the course of the season, with one hybrid unit and one spare hybrid allowed in each rally for all other Rally1 cars, to comply with Rally1 cost saving measures.
As part of the High Voltage safety procedures starting in 2022, every Rally1 car must carry on board HV class-0 gloves, which driver and co-driver will be required to wear in an event of an HV issue to ensure a higher level of protection. Rally1 cars will be marked with a “HY” sign in white letters on red background on the front door panels replacing the vehicle number to make it more easily identifiable by marshals and spectators. Clarification was brought regarding the charging procedure for Rally1 plug-in hybrid cars as well as for HEV (Hybrid Electric Vehicles) zones, when the Rally1 car will use emission free driving. Also, additions to the Appendix 14 were approved to outline the HV safety procedure to follow in the event of a red light or battery thermal incident.
Other sporting changes include a revision of Article 53.1 to create a strong incentive for competitors to stop and re-fasten their helmet, should they realize in a stage that it is not done correctly – a penalty may be assigned otherwise. The procedure for refueling was also clarified, with competitors having to remain outside the car during the operation and the crew supplying the fuel to wear specific clothing. To reduce the instances of drivers registering as co-drivers and taking championship points, the person nominated as the driver on the entry form must now drive on the special stages, except in a case of force majeure, in order to score points.
In the technical regulations, there were changes to the Rally1 class to include the increase of the minimum weight of the car by ten kilos in order to limit the costs.
FIA World Endurance Championship
2022 Technical Regulations for the Hypercar category, including both LMH and LMDh specifications, have been approved.
Testing limitations in the Hypercar category have been defined and applied for the cars entering the second year of their homologation cycle.
The FIA WEC points system has been amended. Points for finishing outside of the top ten (currently 1 point for eight-hour and 24-hour races and 0.5 point for six-hour races) will no longer be awarded.
ABB FIA Formula E World Championship
Financial Regulations for Formula E Teams and Manufacturers, which will be implemented from Season 9 (2022-2023) onwards, have been approved. They aim to monitor and control spendings levels of competitors, promote long-term financial sustainability for Formula E Teams and Manufacturers, the competitive balance of the championship and the sporting fairness.
Updates were ratified to the Season 8 (2021-2022) ABB FIA Formula E World Championship Sporting regulations related to qualifying, to create more efficient operational processes.

FIA World Rallycross Championship
Ahead of the debut of the all-electric World Rallycross Championship in summer 2022, a number of changes to the Sporting Regulations relating to competition format were approved for World RX1.
The Qualifying heats will be renamed Heat 1, Heat 2, Heat 3 instead of Q1, Q2, Q3. There will be three heats only as opposed to the four that have existed over the last eight years. Heat 1 starting positions will be decided following a “Superpole” timed session instead of a draw.
Heat 4 will be replaced by a “Progression Race” to add one more decisive stage in the progress of the event towards access to the Semi-Finals. Starting position distribution for this Progression Race will be determined according to ranking after the 3 Heats. The Final phase remains with Semi-Finals and a Final, but with five-car starts. The highest qualified driver will have a free of starting position. Other changes include five laps in all races (Qualifying, Progression Race, Semi-Finals, Final) and no use of the Joker Lap allowed in Lap 1 if the Joker Lap is in Corner No.1.
That new format will also be applied in all other FIA RX Championships (RX2e, Euro RX1, Euro RX3), except that Heat 1 starting positions will be determined by a draw.

A number of amendments to the Regional Rally sporting regulations were approved. Starting in 2022, organisers will have the option to set up a tyre warming zone between the time control and the start of a special stage, with the aim to improve safety and avoid tyre warming on public roads. Furthermore, organisers are encouraged to move to a safety tracking system complying with FIA specifications before it becomes mandatory in 2023.
In the FIA European Rally Championship, the principles of the “Power Stage” will be introduced, owing to the success of the feature in the WRC and its value for TV broadcast. The points awarded in the Power Stage to the Top 5 finishers will replace the current stage bonus points. Changes were brought to have every top driver choose his start position for Leg 1 based on the results of the Qualifying stage, in order to counter tactics, while allowing the Promoter to set up an attractive and compact TV show. Tyres for all ERC1, ERC3 and ERC4 priority competitors will have to be supplied by an FIA-nominated tyre company, to allow better promotion opportunities for official manufacturers, while keeping the championship open to other suppliers.
To better differentiate Rally3 from Rally4 and make the category more attractive to manufacturers and competitors, the technical regulations have been updated to include the increase of the maximum internal diameter of the Rally3’s restrictor from 30mm to 31mm, ensuring consistency with the Rally car pyramid.
FIA Touring Car Commission
WTCR – FIA World Touring Car Cup
Several changes to the WTCR Sporting Regulations were approved for 2022, with the objective of refining the format, further improving the racing and minimising the strategizing element in qualifying.
- Points allocation system has been amended. From 2022, more points will be awarded for the results of the standard grid race (30 points for victory), than for the reversed-grid race (25 points for victory).
- Points for qualifying will now be awarded to the drivers who set top five fastest time at any stage of the session (including Q1, Q2 and Q3 segments).
- Maximum compensation weight has been reduced from 60 to 40kg, with calculations based on the better of the previous two, rather than three events.
- Minimum repair time allowance between the two races has been introduced and set at 60 minutes, allowing competitors to drive to the limit in the opening race without the fear of compromising the second race of the day.
