Overview

• Auto Motor und Sport reports that teams have seen FIA charts detailing circuit-by-circuit energy limits, including per-session caps on battery capture and deployment.
• Monaco and Singapore are set to use a reported ‘Rev1’ reduced-power setting to curb tunnel and street-course speeds, available in both standard and override modes.
• Examples cited include 9MJ allowances at many venues, with tighter practice, qualifying and race limits at faster tracks such as Jeddah and Monza, where qualifying could drop to 6.0MJ.
• Traditional DRS would give way to active aerodynamics and a single designated ‘override mode’ zone per lap, with gradual energy cut-offs planned to avoid abrupt power drops on straights.
• FIA single-seater chief Nikolas Tombazis says energy management will be a major challenge and confirms an ADUO concession scheme for lagging manufacturers, while driver Pierre Gasly questions projections of 400 km/h top speeds.
