“Then the plan was to go testing after Cape Town, to have a first update ready for Sao Paulo, which we cannot do at the moment.


“Because our strategy was clearly to have a robust, functioning, reliable car in the first races, and to perform as good as possible and take the points we can get. “The original plan we had before the season has changed now a bit,” confirmed Modlinger. Porsche has had to cancel a planned post-Cape Town track test and reschedule for after the Sao Paulo event because some of its test car components, including the RESS, have been put into the race pool. The greater concern recently has been the pool of RESS batteries that some manufacturers have had to blend between their race cars and their manufacturer test vehicles. The good news is that from Hyderabad last month onwards they seemed to be flowing more freely, with manufacturers having been at least able to dress their spare chassis if they needed to be called upon. A lack of just about all spares was a key concern of teams in the first tranche of races. The paucity of spares has been one of the more prevalent features of Gen3 Formula E so far. “But I’m always a fan of consistent sporting regs for one year and then introducing it for the next season.” 2) Improve the spares flow If the introduction comes we have to adapt as well as possible. “For me personally I’m in favour of having consistent regulations over the whole year. “We have to always react to things when they are changing and at the moment, everything is quite dynamic with the supply chains and the parts which are available,” he told The Race. Porsche’s Florian Modlinger is one of those who personally would prefer the changes to come in at the start of the 2024 season. The majority of teams are known to be against changing the structure of E-Prixs midway through a season. That would mean that any concrete plan for Berlin must be communicated by April 2. From a regulatory point of view, there are sporting regulations already in place for pitstops working in conjunction with the already-in-place attack mode system.īy regulation, the FIA has to announce “any race with a mandatory Attack Charge at least 21 days before the race concerned”. The Attack Charge pitstop plans, in which cars will stop for approximately 30 seconds, were supposed to be part of the sporting structure of Gen3 from the outset. If it were to happen then Formula E and the FIA would have to be completely confident the hardware was reliable, safe and effective. That seems fanciful at this point in time. In-race recharging (attack charge) is being targeted for a debut at the Berlin E-Prix rounds next month according to one Formula E executive, who told guests at an ABB event in Cape Town earlier this month that this was “the plan”. Get these right and the early race-to-race piecemeal feel of Gen3 might just break through into a more substantial and positive experience for those competing within it and those imbibing in its generally excellent content. Some are operational and sporting, while others, that are just as critical, centre upon more progressive topics.

Still, there is a multitude of other topics that Formula E will be addressing in the break until the next race in Sao Paulo in two weeks’ time and then in the four weeks from that event to the Berlin double-header in April as well. Who can catch the Porsche teams this season and will the eventual end of the first phase of flyaway races this month bring a tightening of the competitive order? That current hierarchy appears to be Porsche/Andretti up front then DS/Jaguar/Envision and Nissan/McLaren/NIO 333. This need not spoil the title chase though, as Pascal Wehrlein showed in South Africa opportunities for the others to catch up can be granted freely and easily.
