Return of the Pit Boost

A new strategic element—Pit Boost—has recently been introduced in Formula E. First used in Jeddah this year, it’s a mandatory mid-race feature in which cars receive a 10% energy boost (3.85 kWh) through a 30-second, 600kW charge in the pit lane. This boost can be used only once during a double-header weekend.
