The saga of Formula E’s reintroduction of pitstops in the ‘attack charge’ fast-charging format continues
The FIA and Formula E have decided not to introduce ‘attack charge’ energy-boosting pitstops in the 2024 season due to issues encountered during testing in Mexico City. The fast-charging technology managed by Fortescue WAE has not been used during recent events in Tokyo and Misano. Further testing of the attack charge may not happen until the Valencia test in November. Formula E Operations remains interested in implementing the attack charge to enhance racing, but the decision will be made only after the technology is fully developed. Teams and drivers are cautious about introducing a technology that may impact race results, so the FIA is proceeding with caution to ensure the successful integration of the attack charge.
