Formula E, FIA and all teams and manufacturers agree on cost saving measures amid global Coronavirus pandemic
- Unanimous support from teams and manufacturers for cost saving measures to promote long-term financial stability of championship amid global coronavirus pandemic - #formulae, the FIA and all teams and manufacturers collectively agree to delay the launch of the Gen2 EVO car until 2021/22 ABB FIA #formulae World Championship - Changes to the technical regulations will cut development costs over the next two seasons in half with manufacturers limited to a single car homologation
Formula E and the FIA have today confirmed that the championship will reduce the financial burden on its teams amid the global health crisis by lowering development costs. As part of the plans to reduce costs, #formulae, the FIA, the teams and manufacturers unanimously agreed to postpone the launch of the Gen2 EVO car until the 2021/22 ABB FIA #formulae World Championship. Following an e-vote, the FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) ratified the decision to extend the homologation period, with manufacturers only able to alter powertrain components once over the next two seasons. Teams can either introduce a new car in season seven, for a two-year cycle, or continue to use existing technology for the next season before homologating a new car the year after for a single season. After discussion with manufacturers, the changes to the technical regulations have been made with the long-term financial stability of championship participants in mind. Formula E and the FIA have taken a flexible and collaborative approach to decreasing spending, which will see car development costs cut by half over the next two seasons. In addition to supporting its immediate community, #formulae is committed to finding more ways to fight the global health crisis and help others affected by the spread of coronavirus.
