The F1 Strategy Group has voted for a return for refuelling and wider tyres to reduce lap times by "5 to 6 seconds" in 2017.
Yesterday's meeting at Biggin Hill saw a change to tyre regulations suggested for 2016, while the main focus was on a revolution of the rules for 2017. With the current power unit regulations retained, the FIA has announced a number of areas where the Strategy Group has agreed to make changes:
Refuelling was last seen in Formula One in 2009 ahead of a complete ban the following season. Allowing refuelling will lead to lighter cars and therefore quicker lap times.
Pirelli has previously said it would support a change to wider rear tyres to help increase performance, and with recent criticism about the speed of F1 cars, the Strategy Group's proposals are aimed at dramatically lowering lap times.
