What is different in the Formula E series as compared to the Formula 1 series? Lets have a look…
OVERVIEW
As compared to the F1 series, the E series will feature 10 teams. Each team will have 2 drivers and 4 cars. F1 usually employs tracks that are 4-5 km long; in the E series, due to the nature of the cars, the tracks will be 2.5 to 3 km long.
Cars will have a maximum speed of 225 km/h.
There will be a total of 10 races conducted in a season, starting from September.
Each driver must make 2 mandatory pit stops in order to change cars. This must take place in their pit area and be observed by an FIA steward to ensure all safety equipment is correctly applied. Tyre changes are not permitted during a pit stop unless there is a puncture.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Since this is the inaugural season, there will be some obvious flaws in the cars, whether or not they can last the whole season without too many intermediate changes.
The FIA rules is another thing that the drivers and the teams need to keep in their mind. Usually strict in the F1 series, drivers can expect little leniency in the E series as is the case in GP2 series.
Audience is another important factor in any race. The first season will surely throw in large audiences due to the anticipation!
