600 kW fast-charging pitstops are coming to Formula E
Briefly

The introduction of pit boosts in Formula E adds a layer of strategy, requiring teams to balance the risks of losing track position with potential speed advantages. Only one car can use the pit boost at a time, necessitating varied strategies. The feature, not present in every race, will offer unpredictable elements in races like the Jeddah double-header. Its successful implementation could lead to more widespread usage in future seasons, with careful consideration of execution and practice essential to mitigate risks during operation.
"Choosing the right moment to pit, which balances the risk of losing track position with the extra power boost, will be essential, especially as only one car at a time will be able to come in for the pit boost."
"Equally as important to the strategy of when to take pit boost is the execution of it. Although it isn't somewhere you can really gain time, there is the potential to lose a lot, so practice will be key as we introduce this new feature."
