The '''2010 Formula One season''' was the 61st [[Formula One]] season of World Championship [[motor racing]] competition. [[Red Bull Racing]] won its maiden Constructors' Championship with a one-two finish in [[2010 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]], while Red Bull Racing's [[Sebastian Vettel]] won the Drivers' Championship after winning the [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|final race of the season]]. In doing so, Vettel became the [[List of Formula One driver records#Youngest world drivers championship winners|youngest]] [[List of Formula One World Drivers' Champions|World Drivers' Champion]] in the sport's sixty-year history. Vettel's victory in the championship came after a dramatic season finale at [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]] where three other drivers could also have won the championship; Vettel's Red Bull Racing team mate [[Mark Webber]], [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]]'s [[Fernando Alonso]] and [[McLaren]]'s [[Lewis Hamilton]].

The technical and sporting regulations applicable for the season were the subject of [[FIA–FOTA dispute|much debate]]. Before the start of the season, 2009 Drivers' Champion [[Jenson Button]] joined [[McLaren]], while the 2009 Constructors' Champion, [[Brawn GP]], was bought by German motor vehicle manufacturer [[Mercedes-Benz]] and was renamed as [[Mercedes GP]]. The 2010 season saw the return of the most successful driver in Formula One history, with seven-time World Champion [[Michael Schumacher]] coming out of retirement after a three-year absence.

The season's first race was held on March 14 in [[2010 Bahrain Grand Prix|Bahrain]] and the season concluded on November 14 in the [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|United Arab Emirates]] after 19 motor races held in 18 countries on five continents.


==Pre-season==
===Dispute over regulations and breakaway series===


The [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile]] (FIA) had planned to introduce a budget cap, in order to safeguard the sport during the current [[Financial crisis of 2007–2010|economic downturn]]. The proposal had an optional budget cap of €30 million ($45 million, £27 million), with greater technical and design freedoms allowed to teams who nominated to use it. The teams objected to what they believed would be a two-tier championship and five of the teams within the [[Formula One Teams Association]] (FOTA), [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]], [[BMW Sauber]], [[Renault F1|Renault]], [[Red Bull Racing]] and [[Toro Rosso]] announced their intentions to withdraw from the 2010 championship. BMW Sauber later announced on their withdrawal from Formula One at the end of the 2009 season, due to economic problems.

Following negotiations, the FOTA teams unanimously decided to withdraw at the end of the 2009 season unless the budget cap rules were changed.  [[WilliamsF1|Williams]] and [[Force India]] both submitted their own entries and were temporarily suspended from FOTA,  while the remaining teams submitted conditional entries for the 2010 season. The 2010 entry list was published by the FIA on 12 June, which included all {{f1|2009}} teams and three new teams, [[Campos Meta]], [[Virgin Racing]] and [[US F1 Team]]. Discussions between the FIA and FOTA failed to find a resolution to the budget cap issues and the eight FOTA teams announced intentions to form a breakaway series for 2010. However, following a meeting of the [[World Motor Sport Council]] on 24 June, FOTA agreed to remain in Formula One and FIA president [[Max Mosley]] confirmed he would not stand for re-election in October.

During a meeting on 8 July between the FIA and FOTA on future regulations, the teams walked out of the meeting after being informed that they were not entered for the 2010 season and could therefore have no input on regulatory discussions. In response it was announced that plans for a breakaway series were still being pursued. Negotiations on a new [[Concorde Agreement]] directly with [[CVC Capital Partners|CVC]], the commercial rights holders, led to the eventual end of the dispute with its signing by the FIA on 1 August. The new Concorde Agreement will secure the sports future until its expiration in 2012.


===Testing===
The new season test schedule started on 1 December 2009 with a three-day 'Young Driver Test' (for drivers with fewer than three Formula One race starts to their name) at Spain's [[Circuito de Jerez]]. [[British Formula Three Championship|British Formula Three]] Champion [[Daniel Ricciardo]] was fastest for [[Red Bull Racing]]. As with 2009, the teams were allowed a maximum of 15000 km over the course of fifteen days in February. Testing sessions were confirmed for [[Circuit Ricardo Tormo|Valencia]] (1–3 February), [[Circuito de Jerez|Jerez]] (10–13 February and 17–20 February), and [[Circuit de Catalunya|Barcelona]] (25–28 February). All but [[Hispania Racing|Campos/Hispania]] and [[US F1 Team|US F1]] took part in the pre-season tests.

Pre-season testing started at the [[Circuit Ricardo Tormo]] in [[Valencia, Spain|Valencia]] with seven teams. [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] dominated the test session, with [[Felipe Massa]] setting the fastest lap times on days one and two. In his first appearance for the team, [[Fernando Alonso]] set the fastest overall time on the third day of the test with 1:11.470.

The second session took place at [[Circuito de Jerez]], [[Spain]] with heavy downpours throughout the test. This also marked the first public test for new team [[Virgin Racing]] who only managed five laps after a shortage of parts became a problem.  [[Lewis Hamilton]] set the fastest lap of the test during a dry Saturday session with 1:19.583.

The third test at [[Circuito de Jerez|Jerez]] for another four-day test was also affected by mixed weather conditions. [[Lotus Racing]] started its first public test with the [[Lotus T127|T127]]. The penultimate and last days saw sunny weather with [[Jenson Button]] setting the fastest time (1:18.871).

The last pre-season test took place at [[Circuit de Catalunya]], [[Barcelona]]. The test started in sunny weather with rain showers scattered through the weekend. [[Virgin Racing|Virgin's]] testing misery carried on with [[Lucas di Grassi]] crashing and more mechanical issues. [[Lewis Hamilton]] set the fastest lap of the week (1:20.472) with most teams doing low fuel runs on Sunday.

== Report ==
[[File:Schumacher British GP 2010.jpg|thumb|left|[[Michael Schumacher]] returned to the grid with the [[Mercedes GP]] team.]]
In stark contrast to {{F1|2009}}, no one driver emerged as dominant in the early stages of the 2010 season. [[Fernando Alonso]] won the opening race of the season in [[2010 Bahrain Grand Prix|Bahrain]] after [[Sebastian Vettel]]'s engine misfired, with Alonso becoming just the sixth [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] driver to win on debut for the Italian team. Reigning World Champion [[Jenson Button]] claimed victory in [[2010 Australian Grand Prix|Australia]] for the second year in succession, whilst Vettel won in [[2010 Malaysian Grand Prix|Malaysia]], setting up a unique situation that would last for the rest of the season whereby no driver would win a race while leading the World Championship.

[[File:Robert Kubica 2010 Australia (cropped).jpg|thumb|right|[[Robert Kubica]] finished second in [[2010 Australian Grand Prix|Australia]].]]
Button became the first driver to win more than one race with victory in [[2010 Chinese Grand Prix|China]], but [[Mark Webber]] would be the first to take back-to-back victories with wins in [[2010 Spanish Grand Prix|Spain]] and [[2010 Monaco Grand Prix|Monaco]]. Webber was leading the {{F1 GP|2010|Turkish}} when team-mate Vettel attempted a pass on lap 40 that ended with the two [[Red Bull Racing|Red Bulls]] colliding; Vettel retired whilst Webber recovered to finish third behind eventual race winner [[Lewis Hamilton]] and Jenson Button. Hamilton would match Webber's feat of back-to-back victories by claiming first place in [[2010 Canadian Grand Prix|Canada]].

[[File:2010 Canadian GP opening lap (cropped).jpg|thumb|right|[[Lewis Hamilton]] leading [[Sebastian Vettel]] and [[Fernando Alonso]] at the {{F1 GP|2010|Canadian}}. Hamilton won the race to take the drivers' championship lead.]]
The middle of the season saw controversy, starting at the {{F1 GP|2010|European}} in [[Valencia Street Circuit|Valencia]] following a disputed safety car ruling. Mark Webber collided with [[Heikki Kovalainen]] at the fastest point on the circuit, the collision destroying Webber's front wing and launching Webber into a somersault. The safety car was deployed immediately, joining the circuit behind race leader Vettel, but ahead of then-second placed Hamilton and the Ferraris of Alonso and [[Felipe Massa]]. Hamilton overtook the safety car as it emerged from the pit lane but after it had crossed the safety car control line. It took the race stewards twenty minutes to pass verdict on the infringement, and while Hamilton was issued with a drive-through penalty for his actions, it had little effect as he was already well clear of the rest of the field.

The {{F1 GP|2010|British}} marked the halfway point of the season and was the source of further controversy, this time in the Red Bull garage as the "Red Bull Civil War" spilled over into open hostilities when team principal [[Christian Horner]] removed the team's Silverstone-spec front wing from Mark Webber's car and placed it on Vettel's for qualifying and the race after the German driver damaged his in the final practice session. Webber won the race after Vettel developed a puncture on the first lap and was forced to pit.

The {{F1 GP|2010|German}} saw a return to form for Ferrari, with both Alonso and Massa quickest over the course of the race meeting. On the anniversary of [[2009 Hungarian Grand Prix|his accident]], Felipe Massa led most of the race before a message from the Ferrari pit appeared to be a coded instruction telling Massa to move over and let Alonso through, granting Alonso seven extra World Championship points for his ultimate win. Ferrari were fined [[United States dollar|US$]]100,000 for the use of team orders to deliberately alter the outcome of a race and faced further sanctions at a meeting of the [[FIA World Motor Sport Council]] in September where they face charges of bringing the sport into disrepute, though the hearing would ultimately acquit Ferrari on the grounds of a lack of evidence.

After finishing sixth in Germany, Webber won again in [[2010 Hungarian Grand Prix|Hungary]] after Vettel broke an obscure safety car rule and was issued with a drive-through penalty that demoted him to third, while Lewis Hamilton won a wet {{F1 GP|2010|Belgian}} from Mark Webber and [[Robert Kubica]] while Vettel was involved in a collision with Button that eliminated the incumbent World Champion whilst Vettel was handed his second drive-through penalty in as many races. Fernando Alonso retired after an uncharacteristic mistake in the wet. The European season ended in [[2010 Italian Grand Prix|Italy]], with Alonso claiming his third victory of the season and adding a fourth to his tally – and his first [[List of Formula One driver records#Grand Slam (Led entire race from pole and scored fastest lap)|Grand Slam]] – in [[2010 Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]].

The 2010 season also saw the debut of three new teams, [[Virgin Racing|Virgin]], [[Lotus Racing|Lotus]] and [[Hispania Racing|Hispania]]. The teams were often more than three seconds per lap slower than the established teams. After fighting reliability issues early in the season, the three teams soon established themselves with Lotus leading the way, their best result being a twelfth place for Heikki Kovalainen in Japan. Virgin struggled after discovering their fuel tank was too small, forcing them to push their development schedule back five races in order to build a car that could finish the race. Hispania were the slowest of the three, and by mid-season were rotating their drivers on a regular basis, but a pair of fourteenth places by [[Karun Chandhok]] in Australia and Monaco put the team ahead of Virgin in the Constructors' Championship for most of the season.

Red Bull reasserted their dominnce in [[2010 Japanese Grand Prix|Japan]], with Vettel winning comfortably from Webber and Alonso third. They were prepared to continue their performance in a rain-delayed {{F1 GP|2010|Korean}}, but an early accident eliminated Webber and a late engine failure for Vettel handed the victory to Alonso. [[Nico Hülkenberg]] claimed his maiden pole position for [[WilliamsF1|Williams]] by over a second in changing conditions in [[2010 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]], but Red Bull went on to claim their fourth one-two finish of the season, claiming enough points to be declared [[List of Formula One World Constructors' Champions|World Constructors' Champions]] in just their sixth year of competition.

In the week leading up to the [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|final race]] of the season, Red Bull repeated their intentions not to use team orders, a decision they were widely criticised for as allowing Mark Webber to finish ahead of Sebastian Vettel would have meant he trailed Fernando Alonso by just one point ahead of the race in Abu Dhabi. However, the Australian struggled to find speed across the weekend, qualifying behind Alonso and unable to find a way past the Ferrari driver for most of the race. Like Webber, Alonso had opted for an early pit stop in his tyre strategy, but emerged behind Russian rookie [[Vitaly Petrov]]. Taking into account the cars ahead of them that had yet to stop, this meant that Alonso would be running sixth on the road when he needed to finish fourth to claim the title.

McLaren's Jenson Button took the lead of the race when Sebastian Vettel pitted, the 2009 World Champion attempting to extend his lead enough to avoid a costly encounter with [[Robert Kubica]] after Lewis Hamilton got caught behind the Renault driver; passing Kubica would give him a chance to catch Vettel, who would resume the lead when Button pitted. Button needed a lead of twenty-two seconds to rejoin the circuit ahead of Kubica and Hamilton, but Kubica was able to match him on lap times and McLaren were forced to pit Button, who rejoined fourth behind his team mate, becoming third when Kubica pitted. While Kubica was expected to rejoin somewhere behind Mark Webber, Vitaly Petrov had held Webber and Alonso up enough that when Kubica completed his stop, he joined the circuit ahead of them, adding his name to the list of drivers Alonso needed to pass in order to win the World Championship. Sebastian Vettel won the race, with the McLarens second and third. Alonso was unable to find a way past Petrov and so finished seventh, handing the title to Vettel by four points. Abu Dhabi was the first time Sebastian Vettel had led the 2010 World Championship.


==Teams and drivers==
The following teams and drivers compete in the 2010 [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile|FIA]] [[Formula One|Formula One World Championship]]. With the withdrawal of BMW and Toyota, engine diversity in Formula One dropped to a 30-year low, with just four engine producers powering the entire grid, the lowest since {{f1|1980}}.

===New entries process===
The FIA announced its intention to open up the grid, aiming for a total of 13 teams, and in July 2009 selected three new teams from 15 new applicants, as well as confirming the entry of all 10 existing teams. The existing F1 teams, under the FOTA organisation, are understood to have agreed a system of technical support to assist new teams. This compromise proposal would involve the supply of parts and design knowledge to the new entrants, but not full customer cars, in return for which the budget cap idea was dropped.


The three teams on the entry list released in July 2009 included Campos Meta, a Spanish team led by former driver and GP2 team owner Adrian Campos and Madrid-based sports advertising agency Meta Image; Manor Grand Prix, an F3 team run by John Booth and designer Nick Wirth; and USF1, a team created by former designer Ken Anderson and journalist Peter Windsor. Following the withdrawal of BMW Sauber, [[Lotus Racing]] was accepted to the grid. Manor became known as [[Virgin Racing]] after Richard Branson's Virgin Group purchased naming rights to the team, while Campos-Meta was reimagined as [[Hispania Racing]] after investor [[José Ramón Carabante]] purchased the team from Adrian Campos shortly before the first race of the season. USF1 officially withdrew from the championship in early March, following months of speculation and accusations from whistleblowers that the team had been crippled by mismanagement for months.

The FIA also had several entry bids from other racing teams including [[World Series by Renault]] and [[24 Hours of Le Mans|Le Mans]] entrant [[Epsilon Euskadi]], Dave Richards' highly successful [[Prodrive]] outfit and Italian touring car team [[N.Technology]] as well as re-imaginings of former teams [[March Engineering|March]], [[Brabham]], and [[Litespeed F3|Team Lotus]] (not to be confused with Lotus Racing). Other expressions of interest came from [[Superfund Group|Team Superfund]], an Austrian outfit to be fronted by former driver Alex Wurz and myf1dream.com, a team established by fans of the sport and funded by their donations. Experienced sports car and touring car entrant [[RML Group|Ray Mallock Limited]] had intended to submit an entry bid, but decided against it following the [[FIA–FOTA dispute|mid-season political crisis]].

Of the most interest to the media was [[Stefan Grand Prix]], created by Zoran Stefanovic and hailed as Serbia's first Formula 1 team. Stefan claimed to have acquired the remains of Toyota's abandoned TF110 chassis and engine and had access to Toyota Motorsport's former headquarters in Cologne, Germany. After being rejected from the grid, Stefanovic filed a complaint with the European Commission over the entry selection process and then announced his intentions to continue development of the Toyota chassis, re-badged as the Stefan S-01, with the team even going so far as to send equipment to Bahrain, Australia and Malaysia. After several difficulties including the cancellation of a planned test in Portugal when Bridgestone refused to supply tyres, Stefan attempted to purchase the defunct USF1 entry, but the moves were blocked. Stefan was finally rejected on March 4 when the FIA stated that it was not possible to issue entries so close to the season opener.

===Team changes===
* [[BMW]] announced on 29 July 2009 their withdrawal from Formula One at the end of the [[2009 Formula One season]], citing a lack of future viability and sustainability for the Formula One program. After a failed buy out from [[Qadbak Investments]], the team was sold back to [[Peter Sauber]]. The FIA officially accepted the team to the 2010 grid under the name [[Sauber|BMW Sauber]] on 3 December, using [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] engines after the [[Toyota Racing|Toyota]] withdrawal.
* [[Toyota Racing|Toyota]] withdrew from Formula One on 4 November 2009, due to economic hardship. After announcing they would not sell the team on, their grid slot went to the [[Sauber]] team. Then, [[Stefan Grand Prix]] claimed that they had acquired rights to the Toyota Motorsport's former headquarters in Cologne and the TF110 that was renamed Stefan S-01.
* [[Scuderia Toro Rosso]] became an independent constructor in 2010, after having their chassis supplied by the [[Adrian Newey|Red Bull Technologies]] design studio for the first years of racing. This had allowed the team to purchase customer chassis, despite the concept being banned by the [[Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile|FIA]]. This loophole was closed for 2010, meaning that the STR5 2010 car will be the first car Toro Rosso have built on their own, having spent most of {{F1|2009}} expanding their base of operations in [[Faenza]], [[Italy]] to accommodate production facilities.
* [[Daimler AG]], parent company of [[Mercedes-Benz]], bought a 75.1% controlling stake in the 2009 champions [[Brawn GP]], renaming the team [[Mercedes GP|Mercedes Grand Prix]]. Mercedes' former 40% stake in the [[McLaren Group]] will be purchased back by McLaren, although Mercedes will continue to supply McLaren engines and sponsorship until 2015. Mercedes signed a sponsorship deal with [[Petronas]], with the Malaysian petroleum company ending its association with [[Sauber#The BMW era (BMW Sauber, 2006–2009)|BMW Sauber]], and the team was renamed to [[Mercedes GP|Mercedes GP Petronas Formula One Team]].
* [[Renault F1|Renault]] had sold Gerard Lopez and his [[Genii Capital]] investment company a 75% majority shareholding, in order to secure the teams future. The team will continue to operate under the Renault name and the engine department remains under full Renault ownership. The deal leaves the possibility for Renault to regain complete ownership once the global economic situation has stabilised.


===Driver changes===
;Changed teams
* [[Fernando Alonso]] left [[Renault]] to drive for [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]] in 2010, replacing [[Kimi Räikkönen]] who left the team at the end of the 2009 season.Alonso has signed a three year deal up to the end of 2012, with options for further years.
* [[Rubens Barrichello]] moved from [[Brawn GP|Brawn]] to [[WilliamsF1|Williams]].
* [[Jenson Button]] joined [[Lewis Hamilton]] at [[McLaren]] following the failure to negotiate a contract with [[Mercedes GP]], which bought out his 2009 team, [[Brawn GP]]. This meant that McLaren had signed the two most-recent World Champions, and had the sport's first double-champion line-up since [[Ayrton Senna]] and [[Alain Prost]], also driving for McLaren, in {{F1|1989}}.
* [[Timo Glock]] officially joined [[Virgin Racing]], after leaving the [[Toyota Racing]] team.
* [[Kamui Kobayashi]], who made his dеbut for the now-defunct Toyota team at the end of 2009 covering for the injured Timo Glock, transferred to the newly revived [[Sauber]] team.
* [[Heikki Kovalainen]] joined the new [[Lotus Racing]] team, after leaving [[McLaren]].
* [[Robert Kubica]] left [[Sauber#The BMW era (BMW Sauber, 2006–2009)|BMW Sauber]] to drive for Renault in 2010, as a replacement for Alonso.
* [[Nico Rosberg]] left [[WilliamsF1|Williams]] at the end of the 2009 season after four years with the team, moving to [[Mercedes GP]].
* [[Jarno Trulli]] moved from [[Toyota Racing|Toyota]] to [[Lotus Racing]].

;Entered Formula One
[[File:Bruno Senna 2010 Malaysia.jpg|thumb|right|[[Bruno Senna]] made his dеbut with the new [[Hispania Racing|Hispania]] team.]]
[[File:Michael Schumacher 2010 Malaysia.jpg|thumb|right|[[Michael Schumacher]] returned to the sport with [[Mercedes GP]] after a 3-year hiatus.]]
* [[Karun Chandhok]], who placed eighteenth in the [[2009 GP2 Series season|2009 GP2 Series]] for [[Ocean Racing Technology]], joined former [[iSport International]] team-mate [[Bruno Senna]] at [[Hispania Racing]]. Chandhok is the second Formula One driver from [[India]], after [[Narain Karthikeyan]] drove for [[Jordan Grand Prix]] in {{F1|2005}}.
* [[Lucas di Grassi]], who placed third in the 2009 [[GP2 Series]] for [[Racing Engineering]], joined Timo Glock at [[Virgin Racing]].
* [[Nico Hülkenberg]], 2009 GP2 Series champion with [[ART Grand Prix]], made his dеbut in Formula One with Williams, alongside Barrichello.
* [[Vitaly Petrov]], who placed second in the 2009 GP2 Series, moved from [[Addax Team|Barwa Addax]] to partner Robert Kubica at [[Renault F1|Renault]], becoming [[Russia]]'s first driver in the Formula One World Championship.
* [[Bruno Senna]], nephew of three-time World Champion [[Ayrton Senna]], joined [[Hispania Racing]] in 2010, returning the Senna name to Formula One sixteen years after [[Death of Ayrton Senna|his uncle's death]].

;Exited Formula One
* [[Giancarlo Fisichella]] became [[Scuderia Ferrari|Ferrari]]'s reserve and test driver in 2010, having left [[Force India]] and joined Ferrari towards the end of {{F1|2009}}. After failing to secure a racing drive, he signed up to take part in the [[2010 Le Mans Series season|Le Mans Series]].
* [[Romain Grosjean]] was unable to secure a contract with Renault, due to Petrov's appointment as [[Renault F1|Renault]]'s second driver and will compete in the [[2010 FIA GT1 World Championship season|inaugural FIA GT1 World Championship]] for [[Matech Concepts|Matech Competition]].
* After a poor 2009 season, [[WilliamsF1|Williams]] driver [[Kazuki Nakajima]] was unable to secure a drive for 2010. On February 19, it was confirmed that he would join aspiring Serbian outfit [[Stefan Grand Prix]], despite their lack of an entry to the grid.
* [[Kimi Räikkönen]] is taking a one-year "[[sabbatical]]" from Formula One in 2010 after his managers confirmed that negotiations with [[McLaren]] officially came to an end. Räikkönen instead joined the [[Citroën Junior Team]] in the [[2010 World Rally Championship season|2010 World Rally Championship]], driving a [[Citroën C4#C4 in rallying|Citroën C4 WRC]] in twelve of the thirteen rounds of the championship.

;Returned to Formula One
* [[Pedro de la Rosa]] returned to Formula One driving for the [[Sauber]] team, having previously served as test driver for [[McLaren]]. His return ends a three-year absence from racing, his last Grand Prix start being a half-season campaign in {{F1|2006}}.
* Seven-time World Champion [[Michael Schumacher]] officially joined [[Mercedes GP]] on 23 December 2009, ending a three-year hiatus from the sport. Schumacher had originally intended to make a comeback with Ferrari in {{F1|2009}} to stand in for the [[Felipe Massa#Injury|injured Felipe Massa]], but was prevented from doing so by a motorcycle accident injury, and the Mercedes contract was not signed until he was given a clean bill of health. Schumacher previously raced for [[Mercedes-Benz in motorsport|Mercedes]] in the [[1991 World Sportscar Championship season|1991 World Sportscar Championship]].

;Mid-season Changes
* [[Sakon Yamamoto]], who last drove in Formula One for [[Spyker F1|Spyker]] and tested for [[Renault F1|Renault]], replaced Bruno Senna at Hispania for the {{F1 GP|2010|British}}, having previously taken part in Friday practice at the {{F1 GP|2010|Turkish}}. The team confirmed that Senna would return to his seat for the {{F1 GP|2010|German}}. Yamamoto then replaced Karun Chandhok from the {{F1 GP|2010|German}} onwards, except the races in [[2010 Singapore Grand Prix|Singapore]], [[2010 Brazilian Grand Prix|Brazil]] and [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]], where the seat was filled by [[Christian Klien]].
* During the mid-season hiatus, [[Nick Heidfeld]] left [[Mercedes GP]] to take up a new role with [[Pirelli]] as their official test driver ahead of their [[2011 Formula One season#Tyre supplier changes|return to Formula One]].
* Following the end of the European season at the {{F1 GP|2010|Italian}}, [[Pedro de la Rosa]] was dropped by [[Sauber|BMW Sauber]] and summarily replaced by [[Nick Heidfeld]], who last drove for the team in {{F1|2009}}. It was reported that the change was made because of de la Rosa's poor performance relative to team mate [[Kamui Kobayashi]] in general and Heidfeld's knowledge of the [[Marina Bay Street Circuit|Marina Bay]] and [[Yas Marina Circuit|Yas Marina]] circuits in particular. With Heidfeld joining Sauber, former [[Renault F1|Renault]] driver [[Romain Grosjean]] was drafted in as his replacement for Pirelli.
* [[Hispania Racing]] test driver [[Christian Klien]] replaced [[Sakon Yamamoto]] for the {{F1 GP|2010|Singapore}} after Yamamoto allegedly contracted food poisoning ahead of the race, but was later seen in the Singapore paddock suffering no apparent symptoms, sparking talk of unpaid debts by the Japanese driver and further financial afflictions for the team to deal with when the logo of one of Klien's personal sponsors appeared on the car for the weekend. Team principal [[Colin Kolles]] confirmed that the arrangement would be for one race and Yamamoto would return to the cockpit at [[2010 Japanese Grand Prix|Suzuka]] provided he recovered in time. Klien also replaced Yamamoto at [[2010 Brazilian Grand Prix|Interlagos]] and [[2010 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix|Abu Dhabi]], though no explanation was given for the change.


== 2010 calendar ==
On 21 September 2009 the provisional 2010 calendar was issued by the [[World Motor Sport Council]] containing 19 races, followed by a second provisional schedule which had the Abu Dhabi and Brazilian Grands Prix switching dates. The final calendar was released on December 11, 2009.

===Calendar changes===
* The [[Bahrain Grand Prix]] was run on a new layout at the [[Bahrain International Circuit]]. In this configuration, the drivers leave the old circuit shortly after turn four and follow a loop of nearly 900 [[metre]]s in length, before re-joining the circuit before the old turn five. This increased the overall lap distance from 5.412 km to 6.299 km. The race will revert to the circuit's original layout from {{F1|2011}}.
* The [[British Grand Prix]] was originally planned to move from [[Silverstone Circuit]] to [[Donington Park]] in 2010, but the owners of Donington Park failed to raise the necessary £135 million bond to redevelop the circuit and infrastructure. After extended negotiations with [[Bernie Ecclestone]], the organisers of Silverstone came to an agreement that will see the British Grand Prix hosted by the circuit for the next seventeen years, utilising the new "Arena" configuration which increases lap distance by 760 m.
* The [[Canadian Grand Prix]] returned in 2010 after its one-year absence.
* The [[Japanese Grand Prix]] was due to return to [[Fuji Speedway]] for 2010, as part of a year-on-year rotation with [[Suzuka Circuit]]. However, Fuji's owners [[Toyota]] announced that they had abandoned plans for Fuji to hold the race, citing the global recession as the main reason for this. Suzuka will continue to hold the event in 2010 and in 2011.
* [[South Korea]] made its first appearance on the F1 calendar under the name [[Korean Grand Prix]] with a race being held at the [[Korean International Circuit]] in [[Yeongam]] on 24 October.  On the 12th October, the circuit passed its inspection.


==Changes==
{{prose|section|date=November 2010}}

===Rule changes===
* Refuelling during the race is abolished for the first season since {{f1|1993}}. Despite the resolution over the budget cap and the decision for 2010 to fall back to the 2009 rules, FOTA have expressed interest in a refuelling ban as it represents a way to cut costs.
[[File:2009-2010 cars length compare.jpg|thumb|The 2010 cars are 20-22cm longer than the 2009 versions because of the larger fuel tank.]]
* In order to accommodate the extra teams, the maximum number of cars allowed to take part in a race is increased from 24 to 26 cars.[[Formula One Management]] will offer financial support to all new teams for 2010, in the form of $10m (£6.25m, €6.8m) along with the free transportation of two chassis and 10,000&nbsp;kg (22,049&nbsp;lbs) of freight to each race. The increased number of teams now requires garages to be allocated on an equal basis at each Grand Prix.
* Teams must [[homologation|homologate]] certain parts of the car, including the driver's survival cell, roll structures, all impact structures and the front and rear wheels, meaning they cannot be modified over the course of the season without written approval from the FIA on safety or reliability grounds. The minimum car weight is increased from 605&nbsp;kg to 620&nbsp;kg (1,334&nbsp;lbs to 1,367&nbsp;lbs) to better accommodate heavier drivers with [[Regenerative brake#Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems|KERS]] systems, despite FOTA's agreement not to use the system.
* The qualifying system will change to accommodate the extra cars: 7 cars will drop out of the first qualifying session, 7 from the second session and 10 cars will challenge for pole in the third session. The third session will now be run in low-fuel configuration due to the refuelling ban, although these drivers must start the race on the set of tyres used in the third session. In the event that a tyre is damaged in qualifying, the FIA technical delegate will assess the extent of the damage and may allow the car to switch tyres to a set he deems to be safe.
[[File:2009-2010 tyre compare.jpg|thumb|The front tyres have changed from 270 mm to 245 mm|.]]
* Drivers have eleven sets of tyres over the course of a weekend, reduced from the fourteen sets in {{f1|2009}}. Three of these sets are for practice only and are returned before the start of qualifying, regardless of whether they are used or not. The front tyres are narrowed from 270 mm to 245 mm, in order to improve the balance of grip between the front and rear. Wheel covers and rim heaters have been banned, and tyre blankets are only allowed to act on the tyre's outer surface.
* A new [[List of Formula One World Championship points scoring systems|points system]] has been ratified for 2010, in response to the increased grid. Since 2003, points had been awarded to the top eight finishers, on a 10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1. The 2010 system awards the top ten classified finishers on a 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1 basis.
* The stewarding system has a fixed pool of stewards to draw from for each race, including former racing drivers, instead of a rotating line-up.This is to make the stewarding process more transparent, following [[2008 Belgian Grand Prix#Post-race|recent controversies]] involving the stewards. Previously, stewards were only able to issue twenty-five second penalties for infractions that occurred too late in the race for drivers to receive a normal penalty, but for 2010 they will have the power to hand out twenty-second penalties to drivers who would have received a drive-through penalty and thirty-second penalties to those who would have received a stop-go penalty. A penalty must now be completed within two laps of the issuing rather than the three of previous years.
* Replacement drivers will be permitted to one day of testing, provided they have not participated in an F1 race in the last two calendar years. This was in response to several drivers in 2009 competing in their début weekend with no experience of their F1 car.

* Powered devices that lift any part of the car during the pit-stop have been banned, and to prevent teams from releasing a car into the path of an oncoming driver in pit lane, the crew must wait until the oncoming driver that is within a 25 m zone either side of the pit box has passed.
* The [[Concorde Agreement]], which governs Formula One, was renewed at the [[2009 Hungarian Grand Prix]]. Several cost-cutting proposals were included, such as a limit on the number of aerodynamic upgrades permitted over the course of a season and restrictions on the number of team personnel who attend a Grand Prix weekend. Also included was a Provision that teams will now be able to miss as many as three races before being ejected from the championship, although the FIA will incur some kind of penalty for a missed race.


====Mid-season changes====
* A new [[parc fermé]] system, trialled in [[2010 Bahrain Grand Prix|Bahrain]], had cars sealed inside a bag within the team garages and monitored by low-resolution cameras, switching to a high-definition output if it sensed movement within the garage. The system was made a permanent procedure for parc ferme from the {{F1 GP|2010|Australian}}.

* [[Wing mirrors]] – previously treated as aerodynamic aids instead of for the drivers benefit – may no longer be mounted in the "outboard" position, following concerns about poor visibility which resulted in several cases of accidental blocking in [[2010 Australian Grand Prix|Melbourne]]. The ban was effective from the {{F1 GP|2010|Spanish}} onwards.

* Following the success of the {{F1 GP|2010|Canadian}}, tyre supplier [[Bridgestone]] announced its intentions to increase the difference between its compounds for the {{F1 GP|2010|German}}, meaning that the teams have to deal with the extremes in the rubber compounds.

* At the [[FIA World Motor Sport Council]] meeting in [[Geneva]], on June 23, the rules regarding safety car conditions were clarified following a final-lap incident involving [[Michael Schumacher]] and [[Fernando Alonso]] at the {{F1 GP|2010|Monaco}}. No car may overtake until it has passed the first safety car line for the first time when the safety car is returning to the pits. However, if the safety car is still deployed at the beginning of the last lap, or is deployed during the last lap, it will enter the pit lane at the end of the lap and the cars will take the chequered flag as normal without overtaking.

* Any car being driven unnecessarily slowly, erratically, or which is deemed potentially dangerous to other drivers, will be reported to the stewards. This will apply whether any such car is being driven on the track, the pit entry or the pit lane. In order to avoid coming under the scrutiny of the stewards, a driver must return to the pits within a pre-determined lap time set by the stewards.
* If a sample of fuel is required after a practice session the car concerned must have first been driven back to the pits under its own power. This was a response to qualifying at the {{F1 GP|2010|Canadian}} when [[Lewis Hamilton]] stopped on the circuit after his team informed him that he may not have enough fuel left in the tank for the sample to be taken after the session. Although no action was taken against Hamilton, the stewards moved to prevent teams from deliberately doing it in the future.
* Following a minor controversy when Ferrari conducted a "filming day" at [[Fiorano Circuit|Fiorano]] ahead of the {{F1 GP|2010|European}} using a car that included parts to be debuted at the race – which some felt was an attempt to circumvent bans on testing – changes were made to the rulebook that mean teams will be banned from running parts that have not been raced at a filming session or media event.

* Ferrari and Red Bull were both accused of having front wings that flexed at high speed, pushing them closer to the ground than is allowed. Although no wing ever failed scrutineers' tests, as of the {{F1 GP|2010|Belgian}} the test was made more stringent by increasing the load applied to the wings. Similar changes were made at the {{F1 GP|2010|Italian}} to the test of the front section of the floor under the nose (known as the bib).


===Safety Car===
* The new [[Mercedes-Benz]] [[Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG|SLS AMG]] was introduced as the Safety Car for 2010. The SLS AMG is the fastest Formula One safety car in history.
* Following controversy at the {{F1 GP|2010|European}}, the safety car rules were revised ahead of the {{F1 GP|2010|British}}. In the event of a safety car deployment, drivers are given a "delta time" – 120% of a standard race lap (i.e. if the standard lap time is one minute, forty seconds, the delta time is two minutes) – a minimum lap time in which to get back to the pits or else be cited for speeding. However, following the [[Mark Webber|Webber]]-[[Heikki Kovalainen|Kovalainen]] crash in Valencia, several drivers were penalised for breaking the delta time as they had been racing ahead of the accident and the safety car was deployed as they approached the end of the lap; in effect, they had safely completed a lap at racing speeds and pitted at the earliest opportunity. Instead of following the delta time, drivers must slow down to the speed of the safety car from the moment it is deployed, but will be exempt from doing so for the final two hundred metres of the lap. As a result of this, it will prevent drivers from gaining an advantage by pitting at the earliest possible opportunity and emerging ahead of the safety car.
