Formula E teams face vote on WEC drivers entering clashing Berlin event
The deadline for the electronic vote determining the bypassing of an FIA regulation for certain drivers in Berlin ends at 1600 CET on Saturday. The decision will impact drivers contesting in both the WEC’s Six Hours of Spa event and the opening Berlin Formula E race on the same day. Teams cannot switch drivers between the two Berlin races without unanimous agreement from all 11 teams due to an FIA regulation. Seven drivers, including Sebastien Buemi and Robin Frijns, have dual commitments, with some opting to prioritize Formula E over WEC. The clash between the two series has raised concerns about the availability of top drivers in each championship, with the decision expected to be announced soon.
