The most advanced race: what about the pit stop?

Question from the forum “Behind the wheel” – we answer them from time to time:

– How is charging performed during a Formula E electric car race?

This procedure is not performed during Formula E championships.

For the first four seasons (until 2019), the driver came to the pits and switched to another fully charged car.

Then a more powerful traction battery was introduced – 54 kWh instead of 28 kWh. There was a risk that in some situations she would also not make it through the scheduled 48-60 minutes of the race. Therefore, they simply reduced the duration of the race to 45 minutes.
