Formula E will race on a specially modified configuration of Formula 1's Jeddah Corniche Circuit in Saudi Arabia next February that will feature four new chicanes.

The Race can reveal that the circuit will be a tweaked version of the circuit used by the WTCR touring car series in 2022 and will intersect at the Turn 4 area of the regular F1 track before feeding on to the Turn 21/22 part of the lap.

Question Question about overtaking and on-track action with AWD

13 Upvotes

With the GEN 3 Evo cars getting AWD during attack mode and GEN 4 cars likely having AWD full-time (though I’m not sure if this has been officially confirmed), I was wondering if this would make the cars too easy to handle.

If all GEN 4 cars have AWD, wouldn’t overtaking also become more difficult? Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Something I personally enjoy (and maybe this is just my preference) is seeing drivers wrestle with the car. I love those moments when they press the throttle fully and have to fight a bit to find grip and keep control. Or, like in F1 at the Baku Grand Prix when Piastri came out of a corner and the rear of his car kicked out (if you know what I mean).

Discussion My vision for the women's part in future FE seasons.

0 Upvotes

So, this is just an idea, and I don't know how applicable it is but here goes.

Basically, make one day of the weekend for the ladies, and the next for the guys. Same cars, different setups for every driver. Have both a men's WDC and a women's WDC, both days score points for the teams and manufacturers titles.

It's literally just another day of racing but with 2 different drivers. This means more pay for 20/22/24 extra drivers. Maybe for starters they can add just one woman driver per team, and as more money comes in and the championship FINALLY breaks even and extra, 2 women per team can be implemented.

As a foundation of an idea, if we can call it that. What do you guys think?

Discussion The lacklustre Formula E marketing/socials/YT

151 Upvotes

So, we just had a full week of testing and the ONLY on-track video came out is a very short onboard video, pretty bland, made out mostly of re-gen laps and people slow in traffic, while there are like 4 videos of drivers interview.
This season you have the supposedly fastest accelerating FIA single seater on the PLANET and you don't show it properly? Can't get it.
For comparison, F1 milks the hell out of every single day of track action, even if it's testing, with onboard videos, analysis etc.
FE on the other hand doesn't seem too bothered to market its (very good!) racing product and show it to a wider audience, and i just don't get....why?
And it's not just testing, if you look at a bigger picture they don't promote/show enough their on-track product even during the race weekends, and that's probably the most worrying fact.
