He added that the teams know it and they’ll be comfortable with their ideas before they’ll launch them. The new voting system provides the FIA and eight out of 10 formula one teams the flexibility to change or adopt a new rule quickly or even reject it in a short period of time.

Before this, if any rule was to change the teams would have to come up with an agreement between all the teams and FIA. The new voting system is rather time-saving. It gives 8 out of 10 Formula One teams a flexible option.

Formula 1 news: The voting system will act as an additional layer of protection

Ross said “There’s no guarantee something we haven’t anticipated will occur. If it is going to occur, someone will likely spring it on Formula 1. I don’t think that will be the case. The regulations are pretty robust, but you can never say never.”

“That’s part of the reason why the governance has changed, and it has not changed in order to be able to change the rules at short notice. Teams know you can change the rules at short notice so they’re far more likely to want to be comfortable with their ideas before they release them.” He added.

Brawn feels that if the teams find a loophole in the new aerodynamic regulations, the voting system will be an extra layer of protection against their manipulation.

The previous rule gave the teams plenty of time to manipulate the rule before an agreement came into action.
