This race series got some interesting stuff!!!

 

FanBoost

Fans can give their favourite driver an extra speed boost by voting for them prior to the race. The three drivers with the most votes will each receive a 5-second ‘power boost’ per car per driver, temporarily increasing their car’s power from 150kw to 180kw. Just click here to cast your vote. You can change your mind as many times as you want until voting closes a short time before the start of the race.

Pit stops/Car changes

During races, drivers must make one mandatory pit stop in order to change cars. This must take place in their box and be observed by an FIA steward to ensure all safety equipment is correctly applied. A minimum time period (determined on the day) will also be enforced. Tyre changes, unless a puncture, are not permitted during this pit stop.

Interesting Fan Boost.. but in the long run, may become beneficial with the team with the most marketing power.

exciting finish. last lap, last corner, nick heidfeld and nicolas prost crashed giving P1 to the 3rd driver......Alain Prost damn DL.....

[Adrianli]

Yeah, wat a finish.

 

One thing different is in F1, as the race progresses, fuel load go down, car get faster. But here, fuel load remain the same, battery depleting, n most of them got to slow down so as to finish the race!!!

 

 

Race format was great, practice, qualifying n race all in one day. But race course should be wider to allow more overtaking.

street circuit. very difficult to do overtaking. the other thing is the sound of the engine..... or rather, lack of it.

Agree. Although I think the street circuit format is to better promote the series by allowing more people to watch.

 

Next race is at Putrajaya, Malaysia. Interesting.

Not likely, cos the race before and after that is in the Americas (Argentina and Miami). Looks possible that Mexico might get it, just for ease of logistics.
