The FIA has clamped down on corn🍨er cutting ꦚat a number of points on-track ahead of this weekend’s French Grand Prix.

As detailed in the pre-race event notes issued by Fo꧂rmula 1 race director Michael Masi, the bollard𒐪 system used at a number of circuits has been expanded at Paul Ricard to deter corning cutting at Turns 1 and 2, and the Turns 3-5 complex.

Two fluorescent bollards ha♓ve been placed ๊at Turn 2 to outline track limits, with an escape route in the run-off area also being determined by some arrowed blocks.

“Any driver who fails to negotiate Turn 2 by using the track, and who passes completely to the right of the first fluorescent yellow bollard on the apex of the corner, must keep completely to the r🌃ight of the fluorescent yellow bollard and re-join the track by driving through the two arrays of blo𝐆cks in the run-off by passing to the right of the first and to the left of the second,” the event notes read.

A similar system has been put in place at Turns 🤡3-5: “Any driver who fails to negotiate Turn 4 by using the track, and who passes completely to the left of the fluorescent yellow bollard on the apex of the corner,🔯 must keep completely to the left of the fluorescent yellow bollard and re-join the track by driving to the left of two blocks in the run-off prior to Turn 5.”

The๊se newꦅ deterrents are in addition to pre-planned escape roads for corner cutting at Turns 8 and 9.

However, these will only apply to the race, with any incidents in practice or qualifying ⛎being judged on a case-by-case basis.
