Formula E

[Andres125sx]

This is the SRT05E

According to motorsport.com it's just a concept. They won the tender but they haven't settled on a final design yet as the car is still in development.

But the final car may be even more radical, according to motorsport too

It is known that separate visuals have been shown to teams in recent weeks, bearing an even more radical depiction as to how the season five cars will look.

The exact details may differ as there´s still a long time before its debut, so still under development, but I guess the concept will be similar

Wonder if Liberty had anything to do with the approval of that look

[FrukostScones]

And people wonder why the end is near.

The end of what?

you will find out soon enough.

btw: if Liberty had a say in this, F1 is so doomed.

Any reason to make statements you´re not prepared to explain?

If it is coming this bad ("open wheel" (former )monoposto design FE), the higher entity maybe had enough of it, of us.

What the kcuf are you talking about?

What the kcuf are you talking about?

I was wondering the same

[FW17]

Why Formula E has not added a bike race to the package?

Electric Bikes not relevant?

Maybe because it is Formula E instead of Moto E

Actually, a "Moto E" series doesn't sound like a bad idea at all (though they probably shouldn't drive on FE tracks given that they're street circuits)

[J.A.W.]

Why not use the same tracks?
At least they'd be able to do more than one lap of the circuit, unlike at the Isle of Man..

It might look something like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy9bK5kDlFs

Maybe a bit dangerous but the racing would be awesome in comparison to the FE car race. But most circuits still look safer than the Macau circuit where the superbikes are allowed.

The problem is that the Moto E race will the main attraction and FE race will be a side show. With all the manufacture interest in FE this will not be a great idea.

Out of interest what is the rated power of the Isle of Mann Zero TT bikes? 125HP? Close to a Moto2?

Hard to say, their average speed is between the 600cc side cars and the 650cc lightweights, quite a lot slower than the super sports.

Weight limit is between 100kg and 300kg, not sure how heavy the electric bikes are which makes it hard to say what the power is.

Machine Name: SHINDEN GO 2016
Total Weight (kg): 250
Motor Type: Oil-cooled, 3-phase, Brushless Motor
Maximum Output (kW[PS]): 120[163.2]
Maximum Torque (Nm [kgfm]): 210 [21.4]

[SR71]

BMW to join Formula E in 2018.

Electric is the future, F1 has to adopt, merge, or face extinction.
