Abstract: We consider the standard model of i.i.d. first passage percolation on $mathbb{Z}^d$ given a distribution $G$ on $[0,+infty]$ ($+infty$ is allowed). When $G([0,+infty])<p_c(d)$, it is known that the time constant $m{u}_G$ exists. We are interested in the regularity properties of the map $Gmapstom{u}_G$. We first study the specific case of distributions of the form $G_p=pdelt{a}_1+(1-p)delt{a}_{i}nfty$ 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 $pmapstom{u}_{G_p}$ is Lipschitz continuous on every interval $[p_0,1]$, where $p_0>p_c(d)$.
