F1 website says fueling of 12.1 litres per second is allowed and considering they stop fo about 7 secs average, I guess thats 85 litres.
N.B.
The first line reads: "The fuel tanks on Formula One cars comprise a SINGLE rubber bladder."

A F1 car has double tanks that can hold around 70 liters EACH.
So a F1 car can carry up to 130-140 liters with fully... full tanks.
But at a 12 liter/second flow on the pump, a pit stop to fill the tank completely will take around 15 seconds.

The fuel tank capacity of an F1 car is exactly 60 liters... no more, no less.

I don't think there are specific regulations. As they now have fuel stops and tyre changes, it wouldn't make sense to fill a car to go the whole length of a Grand Prix.
There are regs about fuel itself. Get ready to go to sleep!

It varies from car to car. Usually it is between 35 to 70 litres
