‘Traction control’ probe behind Porsche Formula E investigations

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


The near four-hour long investigations into race winner Pascal Wehrlein and Formula E champion Jake Dennis at the Mexico City E-Prix have their roots in a suspicion a form of traction control system may have been used during the start procedure

“The investigations into Pascal Wehrlein and Jake Dennis at the Mexico City E-Prix were based on suspicion of traction control launch usage during the start. After a thorough analysis of data and discussions with the Porsche team, the FIA technical department concluded that no further action was necessary. Wehrlein retained his victory, while Dennis kept his ninth-place finish. Both drivers, along with Norman Nato, were initially under investigation, but Nato was cleared during the race. The examination of the Porsche’s throttle pedal map took several hours before the decision not to impose any penalties. The FIA stewards conducted a comprehensive investigation, and it is unclear if teams have developed and used an automatic launch system in Formula E recently.”
