This weekend, Formula 1 is having its 11th round of the World Championship. Several drivers will be changing components of their power unit or gearboxes.<\/p>\n
Lance Stroll will use his 3rd gearbox. The Canadian will not be penalized with grid position penalties yet, as the Aston Martin driver remains within the limit of 4 different gearboxes for the season. \u00ab The transmission shaft, gear change components, and auxiliary components used by Lance Stroll are one of the four new transmission shafts, gear change components, and auxiliary components allowed for the 2023 championship season \u00bb explains the FIA in its press release.<\/p>\n
Sergio P\u00e9rez and Nico H\u00fclkenberg are changing their gearboxes for this weekend at Silverstone. Like Lance Stroll, the Red Bull driver will use his third gearbox for the British Grand Prix. The German driver and the Haas driver, on the other hand, will use a fourth gearbox. This is the last gearbox allowed for car number 27<\/b> on the F1 grid. With less than half of the season remaining, Nico H\u00fclkenberg will be penalized for the next gearbox change.<\/p>\nEngine part changes to note<\/h2>\n
Several drivers will also make parts changes. These changes concern components of the power unit of the cars.<\/p>\n

The double world champion, Checo Perez, the Mercedes driver, and the Dutchman from AlphaTauri will be using a new kinetic energy recovery system (MGU-K). This usage will have no impact on the drivers.<\/p>\n
Max Verstappen will use a third exhaust system, while Sergio Perez, George Russell, and Nyck de Vries are in the same situation. Nico H\u00fclkenberg will use a fourth exhaust system. The FIA states that no driver will be penalized for their multiple parts changes.
