I was just wondering....but does the FIA have a ruling on the minimum moment of inertia of a wheel, it material and/or weight. I ask this because taking into account the ridicolous ammount of money that they spend nowadays on "details" to earn a couple of thousands of a second...I would expect the wheel manufacturers to develop new wheels made out of Titanium or beryllium alloys or perhaps even composite materials to reduce the moment of inertia of the wheels. So....does the FIA have any ruling that would keep teams from using any of these materials?
