Formula One teams have been given a break when it comes to changing an engine during a Grand Prix weekend.
According to autosport.com, F1 team principals agreed last week to modify the rules and allow the first engine change to go unpunished.

That's better, but the whole engine change penalty still annoys me. F1 is not endurance racing. If Max wants long lasting engines, he should look there!

I agree. Next they have to ditch the engine freeze, and the 19K rev limit!
