The FIA's Calendar Clash Conundrum: A Spectacle of Chaos and Confusion

P1racenews AI automatic summary:


Robin Frijns believes the FIA are not supporting drivers competing in multiple championships.

Robin Frijns is disappointed in the lack of support from the FIA for drivers competing in multiple championships, citing a clash between Formula E and WEC races impacting seven drivers. The conflicting schedules of the Berlin E-Prix and Six Hours of Spa-Francorchamps have caused frustration for drivers like Frijns, Vandoorne, and Vergne. Despite hopes of attending both races, an e-vote at the São Paulo E-Prix prevented drivers from participating in both events. Some teams in Formula E prohibit their drivers from competing in WEC to avoid scheduling conflicts. Frijns criticized the handling of the calendar clash by the FIA and called for better communication and solutions. The allure of participating in Formula E and WEC stems from the shorter Formula E season and historical precedent of drivers competing in multiple series simultaneously.
