No more refueling in Formula One

Refueling is a thing of the past in Formula One auto racing. New rules and procedures have been announced prior to this weekends race in Bangkok.

The cars will be a foot longer and have larger fuel tanks to hold the entire amount needed for the race. Pit stops are estimated to be around 3 seconds after this rule change.

The top 10 starters will also be starting on tires used in qualifying.
