The 2017 FIA Formula One World Championship was the 71st season of Formula One motor racing. It featured the 68th Formula One World Championship, a motor racing championship for Formula One cars which is recognised by the sport's governing body, the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), as the highest class of competition for open-wheel racing cars. Teams and drivers competed in twenty Grands Prix—starting in Australia on 26 March and ending in Abu Dhabi on 26 November—for the World Drivers' and World Constructors' championships.

The reigning Drivers' Champion Nico Rosberg was originally due to drive for Mercedes in 2017. He announced his retirement from the sport in December 2016 after winning his first drivers' World Championship, so the 2017 season was the first since 1994 in which the reigning champion did not compete.[1] Mercedes started the season as the defending Constructors' Champion, having secured their third consecutive title at the 2016 Japanese Grand Prix.[2]

2017 was the first genuine inter-team title battle for five years. Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes had to contend with a resurgent Ferrari team with lead driver Sebastian Vettel heading the championship for the first 12 rounds and challenging deep into the twenty race season.[3][4][5] At the conclusion of the championship, Hamilton won his fourth World Drivers' Championship title. Hamilton finished 46 points ahead of Sebastian Vettel in second with 317 points and Valtteri Bottas in third with 305 points.[6][7] In the World Constructors' Championship, Mercedes won their fourth consecutive title at the 2017 United States Grand Prix and finished with 668 points. Ferrari finished second with 522 points and Red Bull Racing were third with 368 points.[8]

Team changes[edit]

  • Just Racing, the parent company of MRT, went into administration in January 2017.[59] The company collapsed later that same month,[60][61] ultimately closing down entirely in March after administrators were unable to find a buyer for MRT.[62]
  • Sauber used one year-old Ferrari power units in 2017, mirroring the arrangement between Ferrari and Scuderia Toro Rosso in 2016.[21]
  • Toro Rosso returned to using Renault power units (badged with their own name) in 2017, having used 2015-specification Ferrari power units in 2016.[17] The team had previously used Renault power units in 2014 and 2015 before the relationship between Renault and sister team Red Bull Racing broke down, prompting Toro Rosso to seek out an alternative supplier.[63][64]

Driver changes[edit]

Nico Rosberg (pictured left) retired from Formula One shortly after winning the 2016 World Drivers' Championship. His place at Mercedes was taken by Valtteri Bottas (right).

Calendar changes[edit]

Changes[edit]

General changes[edit]

  • In September 2016, Liberty Media purchased a minority stake in the sport from CVC Capital Partners,[91] and completed the purchase ahead of the 2017 season,[92] with the long-term goal of adopting a model similar to that used by the U.S. National Football League and Major League Baseball, with teams entitled to purchase a stake in the sport.[93] The commercial operation of the sport underwent a restructuring in January 2017, with Bernie Ecclestone leaving his position as chief executive of Formula One Group after forty years in the role.[94] Former team principal Ross Brawn—who won World Championships with Ferrari and his own eponymous team—was appointed as managing director in Ecclestone's stead.[95]
  • With the acquisition of the sport by Liberty Media, teams were given more control over creating and uploading content to social media.[96] Under Bernie Ecclestone's previous management, all footage filmed in the paddock was automatically controlled by Formula One Management with tight restrictions on the release of content.[citation needed]
  • As a response to widespread changes in the technical regulations expected to increase cornering speeds by up to 40 km/h (24.9 mph), the FIA requested that every circuit on the calendar undergo revisions to update safety features.[97]

Technical regulations[edit]

New technical regulations led to a significant change in car design of the new 2017 cars (Renault R.S.17 pictured, bottom) compared to their 2016 counterparts (Renault R.S.16 pictured, top).
  • The technical regulations governing bodywork design were revised for 2017, with the objective of improving lap times by four to five seconds over the 2016 generation of cars.[98] These changes include:[99]
    • Overall width of the car increased from 1,800 to 2,000 mm (71 to 79 in).[100]
    • Bodywork width increased from 1,400 to 1,600 mm (55 to 63 in).[100]
    • Front wing width increased back from 1,650 to 1,800 mm (65 to 71 in).
    • Rear wing lowered by 150 mm (6 in), from 950 to 800 mm (37 to 31 in), and moved backwards by 200 mm (8 in).
    • Rear diffuser height increased from 125 to 175 mm (5 to 7 in) and width increased from 1,000 to 1,050 mm (39 to 41 in), and leading edge moved from the rear wheel centre line to 175 mm (7 in) in front of it.[100]
    • The leading edge of the barge boards was brought forward to allow teams more freedom in controlling airflow.
    • Tyre width increased by 25% to allow cars to generate more mechanical grip. Front tyre width increased from 245 to 305 mm (9.6 to 12.0 in) and rear tyre width increased from 325 to 405 mm (12.8 to 15.9 in). The tyre diameters (front and rear) were also slightly increased from 660 to 670 mm (26.0 to 26.4 in).[100]
    • The minimum weight of the car including the driver was raised by 26 kg (57 lb), from 702 to 728 kg (1,548 to 1,605 lb).
    • Maximum fuel consumed increased from 100 to 105 kg (220 to 231 lb) to account for the heavier, wider, and faster cornering cars.[101]
  • 2017 saw teams adopt the "T-wing", a thin T-shaped wing mounted to the bodywork above and forward of the rear wing to generate additional downforce. Its creation prompted concerns about the use of moveable aerodynamic devices—forbidden under the rules—after several T-wings were observed to be vibrating during pre-season testing. However, the stewards chose to review the use of T-wings on a case-by-case basis rather than issue a technical directive.[102] The usage of T-wings, along with Shark fins would later be banned in the following season.
  • The token system used to regulate power unit development—where the power unit was divided into individual areas, and each area assigned a points value with development of these areas deducting points from a manufacturer's overall points quota—will be abandoned.[103]
  • Restrictions are to be placed on the dimensions, weight and the materials used to build each individual component of the power unit.[104]
  • Teams are restricted to four power units per season regardless of the number of Grands Prix in the season.[105] Previous seasons had included a provision for a fifth power unit if the number of Grands Prix in a season exceeded twenty; from 2017, this provision is to be abandoned.
  • The cost of a power unit supply is reduced by €1 million in 2017 ahead of a further reduction in 2018.[104]
  • Cameras are no longer permitted to be mounted on stalks located on the nose of the car.[106]
  • Pirelli continued to be Formula One's sole tyre partner and supplier in 2017, beating out a bid by Michelin to provide tyres for the championship.[107] Continuing from previous seasons, the company offered a range of seven different tyre compounds, five for dry and two for wet conditions. While both wet compounds are available for every Grand Prix, only a choice of three dry compounds are made available to teams for a single race weekend.[108][109] As in the previous season, teams are allowed to choose ten out of thirteen sets of tyres for a race weekend freely from the three compounds made available by Pirelli. However, due to limited testing time for the new compounds during the winter break, Pirelli chose to provide teams with a mandatory number of sets for the first five races.[110]

Sporting regulations[edit]

  • Under rules introduced in 2015, grid penalties for exceeding a driver's quota of power unit components carried over from one race to the next if the penalty could not be fully served when issued. When this carry-over system was abandoned, teams could build up a reserve of spare components by introducing several at once while only serving a single grid penalty. From 2017, teams will only be able to use one new component over their quota per race, with any additional components incurring further penalties. This change prevents teams from "stockpiling" spare power unit components.[111]
  • Power unit suppliers will have an "obligation to supply", mandating that they supply power units to any team, should a team end up without an agreement.[103] The rule was introduced following the breakdown in the relationship between Renault and their customer teams Red Bull Racing and Scuderia Toro Rosso at the end of the 2015 season that left both teams in limbo until deals could be arranged.[112]
  • In the event that a race is declared wet and must start behind the safety car, the grid will follow normal starting procedures once conditions are declared satisfactory for racing. Drivers will line up on the grid for a standing start once the safety car pulls into pit lane, although any laps completed behind the safety car will still count towards the total race distance.[113]
  • The FIA abandoned the rule governing driving standards under braking, in lieu of an all-encompassing rule against manoeuvres that could endanger other drivers.[114] The rule was introduced in 2016 amid criticism of Max Verstappen for his habit of changing direction before braking late to defend his position, which led to concerns that such aggressive defensive driving could trigger an accident.[115]
  • Starting from the Spanish Grand Prix, teams were required to display a driver's name and racing number on the external bodywork of the car in such a way that they are clearly visible to spectators. Teams have the option to use the official timing screen abbreviation; for example HAM (Hamilton) and VET (Vettel).[116]

Season report[edit]

The start of the season was tight between the title contenders, with various analysts describing the Ferrari SF70H as initially the more consistent car in race trim.[117][118][119] Sebastian Vettel led the championship for the first 12 rounds (more than half the season) but never by more than 25 points. Vettel's loss of self‑control when he chose to barge Hamilton in Baku was the most incendiary incident between the pair, in a season in which there was a friendly mutual respect.[120] However, Ferrari's challenge faltered towards the end of the season, with setbacks in Singapore and Malaysia (on tracks at which they were favoured to win), costing them vital points in both championships.[121] Lewis Hamilton took the title at the Mexican Grand Prix with 2 races still to go. Hamilton was looking to regain the World Championship and his fourth overall while Vettel was looking to capture his first since 2013.[122]

Scoring system[edit]

Points were awarded to the top ten classified finishers in every race, using the following structure:[124]

Position 1st 2nd 3rd 4th 5th 6th 7th 8th 9th 10th
Points 25 18 15 12 10 8 6 4 2 1

In order for full points to be awarded, the race winner must completed at least 75% of the scheduled race distance. Half points were awarded if the race winner completes less than 75% of the race distance provided that at least two laps are completed.[N 6] In the event of a tie at the conclusion of the championship, a count-back system was used as a tie-breaker, with a driver's best result used to decide the standings.[N 7]

Notes:

  • † – Drivers did not finish the Grand Prix, but were classified as they completed more than 90% of the race distance.
  • The standings are sorted by best result, rows are not related to the drivers. In case of tie on points, the best positions achieved determined the outcome.

Notes[edit]

  1. ^ Red Bull Racing used Renault R.E.17 power units. For sponsorship purposes, these engines were rebadged as "TAG Heuer".[18]
  2. ^ Pascal Wehrlein was entered for the Australian Grand Prix but withdrew after taking part in free practice.[22]
  3. ^ Scuderia Toro Rosso used Renault R.E.17 power units. For sponsorship purposes, these engines were rebadged as "Toro Rosso".[24]
  4. ^ Brendon Hartley was entered in the United States Grand Prix as a replacement driver for Pierre Gasly and so carried the number 39 as it had been assigned to the team as a reserve number. With his entry in the next round in Mexico, Hartley became a regular driver and was entitled to choose his own number.
  5. ^ Felipe Massa was entered for the Hungarian Grand Prix but withdrew after taking part in free practice.[26]
  6. ^ In the event that two laps cannot be completed, no points are awarded and the race is abandoned.[124]
  7. ^ In the event that two or more drivers or constructors achieve the same best result an equal number of times, their next-best result will be used. If two or more drivers or constructors achieve equal results an equal number of times, the FIA nominated the winner according to such criteria as it sees fit.[124]
