Abstract: We consider the standard model of i.i.d. first passage percolation on

m a t h b b Z^{d}

given a distribution

G

on

[0, + i n f t y]

(

+ i n f t y

is allowed). When

G ([0, + i n f t y]) < p_{c} (d)

, it is known that the time constant

m u_{G}

exists. We are interested in the regularity properties of the map

G m a p s t o m u_{G}

. We first study the specific case of distributions of the form

G_{p} = p d e l t a_{1} + (1 - p) d e l t a_{i} n f t y

for

p > p_{c} (d)

. In this case, the travel time between two points is equal to the length of the shortest path between the two points in a bond percolation of parameter

p

. We show that the function

p m a p s t o m u_{G_{p}}

is Lipschitz continuous on every interval

[p_{0}, 1]

, where

p_{0} > p_{c} (d)

.
