There are changes FIA Introduced in the desire for teams to have the consequences of a pandemic coronavirus felt minimally. Therefore, they also confirmed that they will be a third generation car Gen3 introduced later. The same goes for the current race car Gen2, whose upgrade in the so-called Gen2EVO, will be introduced only in season 21/22 and not as early as next season. This allowed the teams to focus on racing this year and next, rather than on development that could cost too much money.
FIA je extended also homologation to the current powertrain for two years and thus allow longer use of these. In addition, they will be from next season reduce the number of tires by 25% in a single race and up to 50% in a double race. The amount was reduced not only due to lower costs, but also due to sustainable development and the desire to reduce the impact on the environment.
Operational staff each teams will decrease in the race from 20 members to 17. External team, operating outside the racetrack during the race, will now be able to count only 6 members. The goal of this decision is to reduce the carbon footprint.
Reduced they will too the amount of brake discs, restrict software and sensors in a desire to increase control reduce the consumption of important equipment in the gray zone. They will optimize logistics costs by setting up a logistics working group.
Development of racing cars bodo limited by the use of tokens namely, worse teams will have more chips and time than the best teams. With this step, they want to create a more competitive environment and equality between teams.
As we have already written it will be for Gen3 race cars batteries supplied Williams Advanced Engineering. Spark Racing Technology will continue to be in charge of the chassis and chassis.
The biggest novelty, however, is the new manufacturer that will supply the tires. Michelin , which has been supplying tires since the first season, will withdraw to South Korea Hankook, which will need to develop even more durable tires.
The power of race cars Gen3 will increase to 300kW in the race and 350kW in the so-called Attack Mode and in the qualifiers. They also took up power Gen2 oz Gen2EVO race cars as they will increase the power of the race from 200 na 220kW, and in the qualifications from 250 na 270kW. More interesting is more power regenerative inhibition, as it will be from the current value 250kW from the front and rear axles, increased to what 600kW. This means that the batteries will be charged sooner and the acceleration of the cars will be even higher.
Last but not least, let them say that they wrote in the technical regulations that they will mandatory box stops have been introduced, where they will have to use the so-called new fast battery charging technology. Fast charging stations will be supplied by the company ABB, which is also the main sponsor of the entire series from the fourth season onwards.
