THE Australian, Malaysian, Chinese, Japanese and Russian races will all start an hour earlier this year for safety reasons in the wake of Jules Bianchi's horror crash at the Japanese GP last year.

    

After Bianchi's life-threatening crash into a mobile crane beside the track at Suzuka, an FIA panel have decreed that no race will start, "less than four hours before either sunset or dusk, except in the case of night races."
Rising British star Jolyon Palmer, the son of former GP racer Jonathan has been handed his F1 break by being named Lotus's reserve driver.
