I absolutely hate the gimmicks Formula E introduced. Fan Boost, forced attack mode, pit boost, etc.
They make the series a chore to follow.
Long gone.
Gen3 Attack Mode was stupid because it was a penalty, not an advantage. Gen3 Evo rules with all wheel drive under attack mode actually have the intended consequence to produce more attacks.
Pit boost was fine. No more difficult to follow than WEC with its refueling. Pit boost’s major downside IMO is that mechanics must not repair the car while it’s charging, so cars with broken front wings or flat tire have little chance to catch up after the wing change with a lap down. Personally, I’d be in favor of battery swaps with solid state batteries in the side pods and mechanics would use pressure guns to bolt them off and on again, kinda similar to Nio EP9.
Agreed. The gimmicks are garbage.
