F1批准2027赛季缩短比赛距离以配合新动力单元方案
F1委员会已批准2027赛季将标准大奖赛里程从305公里缩短至290公里，以配合新动力单元变化并降低成本，该决定尚待国际汽联世界汽车运动理事会批准。
F1批准2027赛季缩短比赛距离以配合修订后的动力单元方案
最新的F1委员会会议还提议取消中断比赛的三小时窗口
F1委员会已正式批准将2027赛季比赛距离缩短15公里的拟议变更，以配合下赛季预期的动力单元变化。
在伦敦举行的周一F1委员会会议上，各方同意将标准大奖赛里程从305公里减少至290公里——尚待国际汽联世界汽车运动理事会批准——以降低与底盘改动相关的成本，从而适应各动力总成部件调整后的输出。
对于2027年，此前已决定提高内燃机的输出并降低电动部件提供的功率，以重新平衡动力单元方案，并减少比赛中的超级削波和能量回收水平。
因此，内燃机将提升至420kW，而MGU-K的最大功率降至300kW——超车模式除外，该模式仍为350kW。为实现这一目标，发动机的燃油流量增加了5%，以提供预期的功率提升。
FIA和FOM没有选择增大油箱容量以适应增加的燃油流量，而是决定缩短下赛季的比赛距离，以尽量减少车手在比赛结束时燃油耗尽的风险。在大多数赛道上，这将使当前圈数减少约三圈。
目前尚不清楚2028年比赛是否会保持缩短后的形式，届时动力总成规则将再次修订。2028年，内燃机功率将再次提升至450kW，燃油流量总体增加13%，以实现60/40的燃烧与电力输出比例，这将需要更大的油箱。
F1委员会还提出了其他变更，待世界汽车运动理事会批准，包括修改大奖赛比赛暂停的计时规则。两小时限制将保留，但对于红旗下的任何暂停，目前比赛最多在三小时窗口内进行。
取而代之的是，三小时窗口将被取消，改为对任何延迟或受雨水影响的比赛实施硬性停止时间，以考虑日光因素。FIA公报表示：“引入这些变更旨在确保观众在出现中断时尽可能有机会欣赏到完整的比赛。”
声明还透露，F1赛事总监将拥有更大权力，在出现长时间红旗时段时延长自由练习赛；西班牙大奖赛的第三节自由练习因刘易斯·汉密尔顿和奥利·贝尔曼的事故损失了约30分钟的练习时间。
汉密尔顿在第22弯撞墙，导致约25分钟的护栏维修，而贝尔曼在练习赛后期撞车又使练习时间缩短了五分钟。
此外，2027年的变速箱认证已被取消，这意味着制造商可以在下赛季继续开发其变速箱。文件还暗示明年将有进一步的小型技术规则变更，以及今年未披露的体育和财务规则。

F1 approves shorter races for 2027 to fit revised power unit plan
The latest F1 Commission meeting has also proposed a deletion of the three-hour window for interrupted races
The Formula 1 Commission has rubber-stamped the proposed changes to reduce the lengths of races in 2027 by 15km, in line with the expected power unit changes for next season.
During Monday's F1 Commission in London, the decision to reduce the standard grand prix length from 305km to 290km was agreed upon - pending approval from the FIA's World Motor Sport Council - to reduce the cost associated with chassis changes to fit the reworked output from each of the powertrain components.
For 2027, the decision had previously been made to increase the output of the internal combustion engine and reduce the power delivered by the electrical components to re-balance the formula, and reduce the level of superclipping and energy harvesting during races.
The ICE will thus be upscaled to a 420kW figure, while the maximum power from the MGU-K is reduced to 300kW - except in overtake mode, which will remain 350kW. To achieve this, the fuel flow for the engine was increased by five percent to deliver the expected increase in power.
Rather than increase the capacity of the fuel tanks to fit the increased fuel flow rate, the FIA and FOM has elected to reduce the distance of the races for next season to minimise the risk of drivers running out of fuel at the end of the race. At most circuits, this will knock around three laps off the current count.
It is unclear whether the races will remain in their shortened form for 2028, when the powertrain rules will be revised again. In 2028, the ICE power will rise again to 450kW, with an overall 13% increase in fuel flow to create a 60/40 split in combustion to electric power delivery, which will necessitate a larger fuel tank.
The F1 Commission has also put other changes forward to be approved at the WMSC, including a rework to the timer for grand prix race stoppages. The two-hour limit will remain in place but, for any stoppages under red flags, races currently operate within a maximum three-hour window.
Instead, the three-hour window would be removed, instead implementing a hard stop time for any delayed or rain-affected races to account for daylight. The FIA communique stated that "these changes were introduced to ensure that the spectators have the best possible chance to enjoy a full race if disruptions occur."
The statement also revealed that the F1 race directors would have more power to extend free practice sessions in the event of any extended red flag periods; the FP3 session at the Spanish Grand Prix lost around 30 minutes of its run-time following incidents sustained by Lewis Hamilton and Ollie Bearman.
Hamilton hit the wall at Turn 22, necessitating around 25 minutes of barrier repairs, while Bearman's late-session crash truncated the session by a further five minutes.
Furthermore, gearbox homologation has been rescinded for 2027, which means that manufacturers can continue to develop their transmissions next season. The document also teases further minor technical regulation changes for next year, plus undisclosed sporting and financial regulations for this year.
