Según el artículo 42 del reglamento no se dice nada de que no se permitan cambiar neumáticos, es más, según el texto se deduce que sí está permitido, sobre todo el apartado 42.3.
42) RESUMING A RACE
42.1 The delay will be kept as short as possible and as soon as a resumption time is known teams will be
informed via the timing monitors, in all cases at least ten minutes warning will be given.
42.2 Signals will be shown ten minutes, five minutes, three minutes, one minute and fifteen seconds before the
resumption and each of these will be accompanied by an audible warning.
42.3 When the three minute signal is shown all cars on the grid must have their wheels fitted, after this signal
wheels may only be removed in the pit lane, or on the grid during a further race suspension. If the race has
been suspended in the pit lane (see Article 41.2) all cars in the fast lane must have their wheels fitted at
the three minute signal.
A ten second time penalty (see Article 16.3.b) will be imposed on any driver whose car did not have all its
wheels fully fitted at the three minute signal.
At the two minute point any cars between the safety car and the leader will be waved off to complete a
further lap, without overtaking, and join the line of cars behind the safety car.
42.4 When the one minute signal is shown, engines should be started and all team personnel must leave the
grid by the time the 15 second signal is given taking all equipment with them. If any driver needs
assistance after the 15 second signal he must raise his arm and, when the remainder of the cars able to do
so have left the grid, marshals will be instructed to push the car into the pit lane. In this case, marshals with
yellow flags will stand beside any car (or cars) concerned to warn drivers behind.
42.5 The race will be resumed behind the safety car when the green lights are illuminated. The safety car will
enter the pits after one lap unless :
a) the race is being resumed in wet conditions and the race director deems more than one lap
necessary, in which case see Articles 25.4(g) and 40.14 ;
b) all cars are not yet in a line behind the safety car ;
c) team personnel are still clearing the grid ;
d) a further incident occurs necessitating another intervention.
When the green lights are illuminated the safety car will leave the grid with all cars following no more than
ten car lengths apart. Soon after the last car in line behind the safety car passes the end of the pit lane
(including any cars which were waved off under 42.3 above) the pit exit light will be turned green, any car
in the pit lane may then enter the track and join the line of cars behind the safety car.
