Fórmula E pitstop comeback continua a enfrentar atrasos

Hello, how are you today?

I am doing well, thank you for asking.

The FIA and Formula E should not introduce pit stops for “attack mode” that provide a power boost during the 2024 season. This decision comes after issues encountered during the first race of the season in Mexico City. The fast-charging technology, managed by Fortescue WAE, was not used on track in the recent events in Tokyo and Misano. Originally, the plan was to use the chargers during the race in Misano. However, with frequent races scheduled from São Paulo to Portland, there are few opportunities for further testing outside of the E-Prixs. FIA’s Circuit Sport Director, Marek Nawarecki, stated that the development of the attack mode will now take place away from the races. Formula E Operations, the promoter of Formula E, still supports the idea of using attack mode to increase energy in the cars and enhance sporting options. However, Nawarecki mentioned that the implementation of this new functionality will not occur until it is fully validated and does not pose technical risks. Teams and drivers are concerned about the impact of using technology that is not fully developed during races, and FIA acknowledges these concerns. Nawarecki emphasized that the implementation of attack mode will not be forced and will require the right timing. Overall learning from the attack mode project will inform future strategies on implementing technology in Formula E, focusing on adjusting the project schedule to allow more time for preparation and validation. WAE faced challenges in developing their RESS battery design for the Gen3 version of Formula E, leading to delays in reliability testing and performance of fast-charging boosters. The responsibility for these challenges falls on the supplier, manufacturers, promoters, and teams, and efforts are being made to improve the approach for future projects.
