0.1 Preface
• This document describes the DALLARA 320 main technical characteristics and settings as well as the
maintenance, repairing and operating procedures.
• The foundation of the 320-car development is the intention to give continuity to the concept of the former 317 car and technically the DALLARA 320 is an upgrade from the existing DALLARA 317 car. The suspension, mechanical components, gearbox and general layout remain unchanged.
• A solution has been chosen that allows effective cost reduction for customers who have the current cars.
• The F-320 is the only one that is authorized to participate at the Euroformula Open, within the
configuration that is described in this manual.
• It is not authorized, unless any other stated, any modification of any of the parts that have been
delivered with the vehicle. Whatever non-authorized modification will immediately mean that the car
is not according to the technical regulations.
• For any doubt, enquiry or suggestion, please do not hesitate to contact with the Organizer and
Promoter of the Championship.
• All the spare parts orders that are necessary to properly entertain and maintain the vehicle, would be
done through the Organizer and Promoter of the Championship.
• The 320 project guidelines have pursued several objectives, among which Safety, weight
reduction and aerodynamic performance, have been specially considered, setting the 320
as a clear benchmark vehicle, in terms of dynamic capabilities and performances.
• The chassis passive safety has been raised to the latest FIA standards. The monocoque and crash
structures are FIA F1 2018 homologated.
• The design and all the manufacturing technologies choices have been oriented to the weight
optimization. The adopted solutions largely compensate the extra weight of the titanium halo, the
composite side-impact structures and other safety features necessary for the FIA F1 standards
• We wish you much sporting success with your 320 car.

Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 13
1.7 Protection secondary panel
Following the FIA F1-2018 regulation, a new wider protection panel has been adopted for the 320
cars, with the purpose to extend the area which is reinforced and then to increase the safety of the
monocoque.
Particular care should be taken in case of damaging of the panel. In case of doubt Dallara is
available to provide support to evaluate the damaging and the possible repairing approach.
1.8 Side Crash Structure
Side crash structure have been applied to the 320 monocoque. The structures are FIA spec (in
common with F1 cars), so they have been designed by FIA and manufactured by Dallara. The
structure allow the chassis to withstand much higher load than before, with good crash performance
also in case of an angular crash.
The side crash structures are bonded to the monocoque, in case of extensive damaging the
structure should be replaced. Procedure of side structure replacing can be find on the chapter
6 of this document.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 14
1.9 Sacrificial keel
A new “sacrificial” keel has been developed by Dallara. The purposes of this component are:
a) Protect the monocoque keel edge (complex repairing procedure) in case of a kerb or ground
contact during the normal use of the car
b) Provide an additional reinforcement to the monocoque for the driver safety
c) Making the repairing easier: in case the sacrificial keel get damaged it can be replaced easily
without the need of a complex and expensive repairing on the monocoque
Once the sacrificial keel will be damaged, it should be replaced to provide again protection
to the edge of the monocoque and the surrounding area. It has been developed to absorb
energy and once its function is performed, it cannot be repaired providing for a second time
the original safety performance.
1.10 Front crash
The nose has been developed to comply with the FIA F1-2018 safety regulation. One crash test and
one push-off test have been performed on the nose.
1.11 Rear crash
The rear impact structure (RIS) has been developed to comply with the FIA F1-2018 safety
regulation. One crash test and one push-off test have been performed on the RIS.
1.12 Halo
The 320 car has been designed to accommodate the halo device. The involved fixing devices follow
to the FIA specifications and required design (including pins and bolts). No modification to such
structures or devices are allowed.
In case of accident which involve the Halo, all the fixing bolts and pins must be replaced.
The front bracket should be checked carefully and if any deformation or damaging is detected
it must be replaced. Guidelines about the Halo safety evaluation after an accident are
provided by FIA and can be found in the appendix to this document.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 15
1.13 Extractable seat
An additional bracket has been added to the back of the extractable seat to provide an additional
support to the extractable seat on case of a severe rear impact. A gap of 10mm should guaranteed
between the two shown surfaces. This gap can be filled with foam, polystyrene or soft rubber to
reduce the flexibility of the seat. The use of harder materials is not recommended.
The use of the extractable seat bracket is mandatory.
1.14 Seat Pillow
The 320 extractable seat has been provided with three additional safety pillows, which helps in
reducing the load coming into the driver back in case of accident or excursion on rough road (grass,
kerbs, unpaved surfaces…).
The use of the seat pillow is mandatory.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 16
1.15 Seat belt
The seat belts for 320 have been updated to the latest safety standard (8853/2016).
Only the use of safety belt that are approved following the 8853/2016 regulation is allowed.
1.16 Wheel tether
The 320 car has been equipped with two wheel tether for each suspension corner.
1.17 Fire Extinguisher System
The 320 car has been equipped with fire extinguisher from OMP.

2 Bodywork
• Unless other thing specifically stated, no modification of the initially supplied parts is authorized
• For the time being, no modification of the body panels’ mountings is accepted.
• No tape is allowed to cover the junctions between bodywork panels
• It is allowed to fit an aerodynamic shroud between the engine cover & the airbox, but it has to
be previously accepted by the Technical Commission, and cannot be changed / modified through
the season.
• Airbox Shroud: Although it is still strongly recommended to use one engine builder’s previously
approved layout, in case the team wants to define their own design, it should be previously
approved by the Technical Comission and, once fixed, it would be frozen.
• Antenna mounting hole: It is allowed to perform an antenna mounting hole in the front access
panel.
• Data downloading connector: It is allowed to make a data downloading connector access hole
in the engine cover.
• For Spiess engine equipped vehicles, 2020.06.16-Bulletin.320.005 – Spiess Engine Cover
additional installation must be followed.
• Dallara bulletin 320 - Technical Bulletin 006 - Rear Diffuser must be considered when trimming
the underfloor.
2.1 Halo Fairing
The 320 is equipped with a front halo fairing. The adoption of the fairing help in reducing the
aerodynamic impact of the halo structure.
The front halo fairing can be opened and deformed to fit to the halo. Once in position the fairing is
fixed with 4 bolts and it could be kept in position by using additional tape film along the borders
(helicopter tape is suggested, but different tape can be used).
To further help keeping the fairing in position, some pieces (example 20x10mm) of double tape (0.5
to 1mm thick) can be used as first step. In any case tape film along the border should be anyway

3.1.5 Caster front
When the car is flat (front and rear ride height are identical) and the front upright inclination is
6.77° [APPARENT CASTER] the effective caster angle is 16.03° [BUILT-IN CASTER].
With different front to rear ride heights, caster angle changes because of the pitch angle of the car.
For instance, with 20 mm front and 40mm rear ride heights, measured at wheel axis, (wheelbase is
2866 mm) the pitch angle is 0.4° and caster angles (both apparent and total) are reduced.
Pitch angle: arctan [(40-20)/2866] = 0,4°
Total Caster angle: 16.03° - 0,4° = 15.63°
Apparent Caster angle : 6.77° - 0,4° = -6.37°

3.1.6 Caster Rear
When the car is flat ( front and rear ride height are identical ) and the front upright inclination is
23° [APPARENT CASTER] the effective caster angle is 17.14° [BUILT-IN CASTOR].
With different front to rear ride heights, castor angle changes because of the pitch angle of the car.
For instance, with 20 mm front and 40mm rear ride heights, measured at wheel axis, (wheelbase is
2866 mm) the pitch angle is 0.4° and caster angles (both apparent and total) are reduced.
Pitch angle: arctan [(40-20)/2866] = 0,4°
Total Castor angle: 17.14° - 0,4° = -16.74°
Apparent Castor angle : 1.6° - 0,4° = 22.6°

3.3.1 Roll Centre Height
The Front roll center height can be changed by moving the spacer on the fixing point of the wishbone
spherical joint on the wheel side.
When changed one step towards higher roll center configuration the push-rod length has to be
shortened by 1/12 register turns to put the car back at the same front ride height.
When adjusting the roll center height also camber gain ratio varies a little.

Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 51
4.3 Wheel nut
4.4 Assembly and Maintenance
The nominal tightening torque prescribed for aluminum nuts is 50-55 Kgm.
In order not to compromise the functionality of the wheel assembly, please never exceed the
maximum allowed nut (both steel and aluminum ones) tightening torque (80kgm).
Please take care of the tightening torque applied through the pit stop air gun. Always double check
that the torque applied is corresponding to the desiderated value.
The axial load on the wheel assembly is the results of the torque applied on the nut.
The torque and the consequent axial load is strongly influenced by the status of the coupling surfaces
and in particular by the friction and the lubrication between the nut and rim surfaces. For this reason
only nuts and rims in good state should be used. Please always check after every session the status
of the nut and the rims. The coupling surfaces must be worn homogeneously especially in the area
of the bigger diameter of the cone. No deep imprinting or lines, dents or other lack of material are
permitted as they can jeopardize the torque force resulting in a dangerous wheel fixing. A good and
smooth contact between wheel and nuts shall be always present.
In case the optional wheel nut retainer is mounted the functionality of the locking pins which prevent
the wheel to be detached should be checked after every session. The locking pins should come out
freely when pushed and released.
The locking pins shouldn’t be worn, the original shape should be kept and the height with respect
to the hub surface should be checked after every session.
Nominal overhang is 3.3mm, a minimum of 2.5mm is permitted.

4.5 Anti-Roll bar backlash
Changing from an anti-roll bar to another or changing blade’s length at the front, it is possible to
experience a small amount of backlash of the ARB body due to mechanical tolerances.
In this case it is permitted to add washers between the spherical joint and the ARB body in order to
stop the sideway movements. It must be clear that shims have no other function than preventing
ARB backlash. Specific calibrated washers are available in the Dallara Spare Part List.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 53
4.6 Rear Rocker
Radial tolerance: wear might occur on the rocker (hole) and on the rocker pivot (shaft). Periodically
replace bearings to remove play.
Axial tolerance: during regular maintenance you might find the rocker is axially too tight or too loose.
In order to tune the rocker assembly, follow the procedure below:
ee) Install the lower radial needle bearing
ff) Install the lower “case hardened” spacer
gg) Add grease
hh) Install the rocker
ii) Install the upper “case hardened” spacer
jj) Install the upper radial needle bearing
kk) Install the calibrated washer 0.90mm thick (39745029_M)
ll) Install the cap
mm) Tighten with the top nut
Measure how much force is needed to rotate the rocker from the damper pick-up point. If the force
is more than 0.05 kg, replace the calibrated shim with a thinner one.
Typically, to prevent the rocker from being too tight, the spacer should be close to 0.90 mm thick.
If the spacer is too thin, the rocker assembly has too much play, if the spacer is too thick the rocker
assembly is locked.
Calibrated shims from 0.77 to 1.00mm thick are available on the Dallara Spare Parts List
(39745029_A, 39745029_B, …, 39745029_Z, 39745029_AA, …, 39745029_AC).
In case the proper thickness value is outside the indicated tolerance, notify immediately to Dallara.
When found the proper thickness, perform a definitive installation with the prescribed tightening
torque and Loctite.
The rocker pivot is forced with interference into its housing.
During maintenance, do not swap the rockers left to right.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 54
4.6.1 Replacement procedure:
This procedure helps when stripping down the rocker assy.
a) Unscrew the M10 nut on top and take the cap, washers, radial needle bearings and the rocker
off. Unscrew nut D by a tubular spanner.
b) Assemble the extractor tooling as shown below around the rocker pivot.
c) Take off the rocker pivot tightening the top screw of the tooling.
d) Remove stud B with the proper tool. As the stud has been tightened with Loctite warm it
with a heat gun up to 140°C. Be careful when trying to take the stud off from the gearbox
in order to not damage the casing.

4.7 Front wing adjustment
In order to overcome the consequence of tolerances in design and/or production, that could result
in a not perfectly straight or correct angle of the front wing main plane, it is allowed the use of
calibrated spacers between the front wing main plane and the front wing hangers, of a maximum
thickness of 0,6 mm.
In order to avoid the use of such spacers with the intent to lower the front wing, instead of merely
correcting its position, the spacers could be used in a maximum of 3 (three) of the 4 (four) fitting
points (studs).
Therefore, the allowance of none, one, two or three calibrated spacers, on maximum 3 of the fitting
studs, will always be sufficient to have a correct front wing main plane position and angle. The
thickness of any of these ‘adjusting’ spacers should be maximum 0.6 mm.
The four studs, fitting points:

5 Steering
5.1 Longitudinal adjustment
The longitudinal position of the steering wheel is limited by FIA regulation with relation to the halo
position. According to the FIA F1-2018 Regulation the steering wheel must be positioned so as it
intersects the helmet free volume at all angular positions. For 320 this means that the steering wheel
must intersect a plane 690mm far from the back face of the chassis cockpit opening.
The steering line length could be adjusted only by shortening the highlighted part. Max shortening
allowed is 50mm from the brand-new component.
In case of shortening the steering column please attentively respect the dimension written below.
In particular distance between the steering line adjustable tube and the sphere of the steering line
support is important for guarantee the correct collapsible performance of the steering line.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 57
5.2 Vertical adjustment
To adjust the steering wheel height is possible to add or remove shims (washers or bespoke spacers)
between steering column support and the chassis.
The STD position is 2.0mm distance, the height variation of the steering wheel for every 1mm shim
is 1.4mm
5.3 Kinematic backlash adjustment
The steering box has two devices in order to adjust the backlash between the pinion, idle gear and
the rack bar: the lower plunger cap and the pinion mounting eccentric bush.
In case of play between idle gear and rack, the backlash can be adjusted by setting the optimal
position of the lower plunger cap.
In case of play between pinion and idle gear, the preferable way for doing the adjustment is through
the pinion mounting eccentric bush. To do this operation the steering housing cap doesn’t need to
be removed, untighten the bush-locking top screw is enough to rotate the eccentric bush.
Once the backlash adjustment is done by rotating the eccentric bush tighten the bush-locking screw.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 58
5.4 Pinion backlash adjustment
In some case it is possible to experience a small amount of backlash of the pinion along its axis due
to mechanical tolerances.
In this case it is permitted to add calibrated shims between the bearing and the retaining ring in
order to stop any movement. It must be clear that shims have no other function than preventing
pinion backlash.
5.5 CV joint orientation
The following CV joint orientation is recommended in order to have a symmetrical behavior of the
steering system:
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 59
5.6 Steering housing treatment
The 320 steering housing is in magnesium alloy. In order to increase its durability an anti-corrosion
superficial treatment has be done. This treatment gives a light grey color to the component.
It’s important to not scratch the external surface of the steering housing but in case this happens a
local paint is recommended to restore the surface protection.
5.7 Steering rack travel stop
The steering rack is provided with 2 rack travel stops, one each side.
Their standard thickness is 10mm.
In case a thinner stop is needed a minimum thickness of 3mm is strongly recommended.

5.9 Steering Line for KIT car
Teams are allowed to carry-over the column of the F312/317 steering line. In order to engage the
carried-over parts (c.o.p.) with the new cardan joint to install a reduction bush is needed to avoid
play between new and old parts.
In case of shortening the carried-over steering column please attentively respect the dimension
written below.
The longitudinal limit of the steering wheel position written in the longitudinal
adjustment chapter is mandatory also for the KIT steering line with carry-over parts. If c.o.p. doesn’t reach the minimum length they must be replaced.

• Each vehicle must select one of the clutches from the beginning of the season, and the selected
component could not be changed during the season.
Clutch hydraulic lines are free.
7 Oil System
Engine oil tank is positioned in the gearbox casing, in front of the differential housing.
Typical level of engine oil while the engine is running could be measured as shown in the drawing:
measuring 130mm from the top cap hole means that the tank contains 5.0 liters.
Engine oil level should always be according to the instructions of the engine supplier.
8 Leg Padding
In order to minimize the risk of legs injury during an accident, padding has to be fitted in the driver’s
legs area inside the chassis.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 2021 v1.2 of April 21, 2020 65
According to the FIA F1 2018 regulations the leg padding must cover up to 100mm behind the face
of the rearmost pedal when in the inoperative position.
Leg padding is provided at maximum length to all cars but teams could shorten it when adjusting
the pedals position.
Dallara suggest to keep the most forward fixing point on both clutch and throttle sides up to pedal
position -75mm (in the picture below the -50mm position as example). When using pedal position
from -100mm to -175mm the leg padding foremost fixing should not be needed anymore and could
be cut.
If, after having already cut the padding, pedals have to be moved in forward direction
the padding doesn’t reach the minimum length and it must be replaced.

9 Heat Shields
In order to protect bodywork and chassis from heat related issue, parts are delivered with heat
protection layers as shown in the picture below.
Chassis is protected on the rear surface facing the engine and on its sides where facing the exhaust.
Sidepods, engine cover and underwing are also protected where they could be close to the exhaust.
All the heat shields are symmetrical respect to the car centerline as different engines could have the
exhaust on opposite sides.
In case of need teams could improve the heat protection.
In some case, especially when exhaust exit is flushed with the sidepods surface, additional heat
protection could be necessary on the external surface of the bodywork in order to shield the area
directly blown by the exhaust gasses.
I3n case of damaging of the heat protection layers teams must fix it or replace it.

11 Fuel System
Documentation concerning the bladder can be found in the APPENDIX attached to this document:
“320.001 - USE AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL FOR M.E.RIN FLEXIBLE TANKS.pdf”
Fuel Cell contains a maximum of approximately 46 liters (including the collector filled). The fuel
system for the 320 uses a flexible FT5/99 specification bladder.
The bladder is installed through an access hole in the rear face of the chassis. Before installing the
bladder, make sure that the cavity in the monocoque is clean and free of sharp edges. It is
recommended to add thin adhesive foam on the faces of the fuel cell cavity.
In order to avoid un-desired severe working condition a new vent valve has been provided by Dallara
and must replace the old one-way valve on the F312 carry over fuel systems.
Notice that the vent flange must be mounted in the correct way. The right orientation is laser-etched
on the body of the valve itself and is shown in the picture below.
Please consider that despite this updated vent valve, temperature and pressure conditions
inside the fuel bladder could be severe. In particular working conditions, due to the polymeric
nature of the safety fuel cell bladders, fuel permeation, or diffusion may occur.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 1.0 64
Moreover, some small blister could appear temporary on the external surface of the bladder:
don’t prick it or it will damage the external coating of the fuel cell.

12 Pedals
Pedals are mounted on a support which can be placed in 8 different positions. The foremost position
is the standard one, and can be adjusted all the way from 0 to 175mm rearward by steps of 25mm.
Each position needs a proper pushrods for brake and clutch pump. Moreover throttle and clutch
pedal-stop for rearmost positions (from -125mm to -175mm) could need to be replaced with the
optional version. Pushrods and pedal-stops are available in the Dallara Spare Parts List.
Here below some example of different configuration suggested.
Optimal configuration is subjected to many factors as type of throttle cable end, stroke
required by the engine and pedal angle desired by the driver. The positions below are the
suggested ones but every case must be evaluated in detail. Whenever pedals position is
changed, teams must check for any clash and that nothing interferes with the cable sliding.

In some case the edge welded on the pedal could clash into the brackets above. In order
to avoid any clashes to use washers as spacer between the pedal and the bracket is allowed as shown in the picture below.
2.2 Pedals for KIT car
Almost the entirely pedals assembly of the Dallara 320 is in common with F312/317. Teams who
buy the 320-KIT instead of the new car are allowed to carry-over also the brake balance assembly.
In this case due to the higher distance from the front monocoque’s bulkhead to the pedal assembly,
brake pump pushrods are needed. When the pedals assembly is in the foremost position two
pushrods 32035054 are needed.

In order to guarantee the best performance of this system, particular attention must be paid on the
routing of the oil lines: try to keep the pipes as aligned as possible to the axis of the respectively
pump in order to not introduce un-desired forces which could affect the brake balance.
This system is designed to allow a regulation of about ±10% of balance from the centered position;
in case this is not enough it is allowed to use pump with different diameters on front and rear brake
lines. Four different interchangeable pumps are available on the Dallara Spare Part List and their
combination allow to tune the centered position value of balance from 50% to 61.7%. The table
below shows the centered position value of the front brake balance in the different configurations:
Front brake pump diameter Rear brake pump diameter Front brake balance in the
centered position
17.49 mm 16.0 mm 45.6%
17.49 mm 17.49 mm 50.0%
17.49 mm 19.00 mm 54.1%
17.49 mm 20.64 mm 58.2%
17.49 mm 22.22 mm 61.7%

14 Halo device
The secondary roll structure (i.e. the Halo) must be secured on the chassis with Dallara homologated
fasteners only (including nuts); the use of any other type of fasteners is forbidden.
The halo fasteners should be mounted with the reported tightening torque:
Fastener number Tightening torque
1 -
2 52 Nm
3 52 Nm
4 65 Nm
5 28 Nm
6 28 Nm
Always use copper grease when mounting the halo fasteners. The front Halo bolts must be installed
with the washers and nuts provided by Dallara as shown below.
Additional notes:
It is not permitted to grind or modify the Halo structure to improve its aspect
Painting the Halo is permitted, although the label with the homologation number must not
covered

2.4 Ballast
In case it it necessary to install ballast to reach the minimum weight, the ONLY authorized locations will
be: Keel (preferred), Cockpit Tray and Bellhousing (with the stated maximum quantities).
When installing the ballast on the keel, the attached layout must be followed.
The ballast can be made either from a block, or from horizontal “slices” of material corresponding
to the following criteria:
The “slices” or block can be made from lead or steel, being strictly forbidden other exotic materials like tungsten, etc.
Each “slice” must be made from a continuous single piece of material
Each “slice” must be fitted to the monocoque by the prescribed fixing points
Teams are allowed to make their own ballast provided that the ballast is maintained in place
with all the fixings designed for this purpose

15 Wheel Tethers Routing and covers
Dallara suggests the following routing for the wheel tethers. Make sure that the tethers cables do
not touch the wheel rim. Before run teams must check for any clash during the wheel movement
and that the cable doesn’t interfere with anything which could damage it and reduce its resistance.
Front wheel
Rear wheel
The use of all eight cables is mandatory. When required from design, the wheel restraint cables
MUST always be assembled with the bobbins on the end loops.
The wheel tether cable should be replaced in case the cable has been damaged, i.e. the braid,
tape or mold have been damaged exposing the fibre, the cable or cover has been cut, the cable
has been over-tensioned (cables are not designed to be exposed to any load prior to an accident)
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 1.0 73
The front wheel wishbone covers should be mounted with the following orientation:
15.1 Wheel Tethers Protection
Following FIA policy, it is reminded that once any fiber of the wheel tether has been damaged, its
replacement with a new part is mandatory. In order to avoid these situations, while keeping the
safety standards, it is allowed to protect, with transparent sleeve, the wheel retention cables.
Anyhow, the homologation label should be readable at any time.

16 Side Cones replacement
Damaging of a side cone is a rare event, which normally can happen in case of a really severe crash.
In this case the cone should be replaced. The following steps should be followed:
1. Cut the remaining part of the cone at the base, as much close as possible to the monocoque
surface
2. Remove the remaining cone carbon material inside the monocoque pocket by using a rotary
tool. The monocoque is protected by an aluminum cup, the carbon material can be removed
until reaching the aluminum. This operation is quite long and it require good tools with proper
rotating speed.
It is possible also to heat the material to soften the glue (maximum allowed temperature is
110°C) and remove the cone by a cutting tool, but this operation has been more difficult
than proceeding like described above according to Dallara experience and tryouts.
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 1.0 75
3. Be sure to remove all the carbon material especially in the edge between the side and the
bottom of the cone cup.
4. Check the fitting of the cone without glue. Be sure that the cone is touching on the bottom
of the cone cup. Check the alignment by measuring the distance from the cone to the floor
of the monocoque.
5. Prepare both the surfaces (cone and aluminum cup) for bonding (grind the surfaces to make
them rough, clean with acetone)
320 Owner’s Manual
Rev. 1.0 76
6. Bond the cone with epoxy glue 3M 9323.
7. Make the glue became harder at room temperature for 24h. If time is not enough the surfaces
can be heated by using a gun heater at roughly 80°C, in this case the harden process will
last 1h.
The repairing process has been simulated by Dallara, and during these tryouts the timing needed to
replace the side cone is about one hour of man work, plus the time to cure the glue.

17 Other important aspects
17.1 Suspension
• Suspension third elements (both front and rear), are strictly forbidden.
• It is allowed to use conventional bump-stops on shock absorbers’ axle.
17.2 Mirror
• Provided that the modification is only made with the purpose of improving the view from
the drivers position when looking rearwards, it is authorized to extend the mirror support,
vertically upwards, of one side of the vehicle, up to a maximum of 100 mm.
17.3 Brakes
• Neither front nor rear brake ducts are authorized.
• Just Brembo (Refs. 09A26111 / 09A26121 or FCOM1151 / FCOM1152) and TM (Refs.
FRNDSC4339 / FRNDSC4340) brake discs are authorized.
• Just the Brembo originally supplied calipers are authorized (HRB option included).
• Just the two following PAGID brake pads are authorized: Pagid EFO [Ref. S7163EFO060], and
Pagid EFC [Ref. S7163EFC060]. GT Sport could decide to supply both types pre-bedded or
not-bedded, so both of them are authorized.
• (same references and compounds as last season, this is Ref. S7163EFO060) are authorized.
• Master cylinders: The brand is free, but all the diameters must be among the followings: 17,46
mm, 19 mm, 20,64 mm or 22,22 mm.
• Brake lines: Free. Quick couplings are also authorized.
17.4 Data acquisition
NOTE: The Technical Commission, together with the Organizing Committee, would analyze
any other proposal for this subject (modification of the authorized sensors, etc.).
17.5 Engine
For all that concerns to the engine and its ancillaries, the teams are free to choose the supplier that
they want for each vehicle. In any case, all the engine related components (including exhaust line,
engine electronics, alternator, etc.), must agree with the following specifications:
• Engine homologation. In order to ease as much as possible, the entertainment works, and to
keep costs as low as possible, the Technical Commission is working with the engine suppliers
(Spies and HWA) in some slight modifications, that would be included into the final form before
• It is allowed to complete the originally equipped data acquisition system with other sensors. The
manufacturer of those sensors that are not included into the engine homologation form (for example
suspension potentiometers, brake line pressure, etc.) is free.
• It is additionally allowed to install a pitot tube
• If any other sensors are used by the teams for private practice sessions (strain gauges,
thermocouples, ride height sensors, radars, etc), all of them should be disassembled from the cars
for the official events (from Friday’s FP1 until Sunday’s second race). It would just be allowed to
leave the extra wiring loom (the one that is needed to operate those sensors) into the vehicle, but
not the sensors.

the start of the season. Some interesting aspects are the internal ballast decrease in both
engines, exhaust line optimization, life increase in some parts, etc.
• “Scrutineering box”: In addition to the homologation form, an “scrutineering box” will be sealed
for each type of available engines, including some drawings and some physical parts that would
be treated as “reference” or “homologated” parts, in case of any engine scrutineering work is
performed.
• “Exhaust line”: The engine builders have not finished the final definition, but once defined, it
would be frozen and included into the engine homologation form. It has also been agreed with
Spiess and HWA to converge, if possible, to a common spec silencer for both engines.
• Thermal protection: Thermal coating in contact with the exhaust pipes is allowed, provided that
they must be detachable. Thermal protective shields / barriers can be installed, in such a way
that they are of the same layout for each type of engine.
• ECU calibration: Free, but must be delivered to the Technical Delegate.
• Engine mileage: All the vehicles have the right to perform JUST one rebuilt of the engine (same
engine number) during the season. In case of catastrophic failure, instead of rebuilding the
engine, a complete substitution of the engine could be authorized. In case of any other
situation of “force majeure”, the Technical Delegate, with the Organizing Committee, will
decide with the Stewards how to proceed. For all the private tests, and / or collective ones,
apart from the runs of the 9 events of the season, the maximum allowed running time of the
engine for each car will be 14 hours (over 3000 rpm)
• Engine oil: Free, but must be accepted by the engine builder.
• Engine oil pipes: Just the Dallara standard ones are accepted.
17.6 Kinematic Chain
• In order to ease all the maintenance works and improve the reliability of the tripod joints
of the driveshafts, a separator like the attached one is authorized, provided that it has no
other function than separating, it is made of light plastic / Teflon material, and it is
previously approved by the Technical Commission.
17.7 Cooling
Provided that the only objective is to cool down some electro-mechanical important
components (alternator, shifting pneumatic box, etc), it is authorized to install a cooling duct
similar to the one that is described in the attached pictures. In any case, the final layout must
be previously approved by the Technical Delegate and, once fixed, it cannot be modified during
the season.
