Media update following the WRC Commission meeting on February 5, 2025.

The FIA and Formula E launch PIT BOOST, a new mid-race feature providing a 10% energy increase (3.85kWh) via a 30-second, 600kW ultra-fast energy boost in the pitlane, debuting during the Jeddah E-Prix on 14-15 February 2025. PIT BOOST will challenge teams to weigh the benefits of an energy boost against the risk of losing track position, introducing new high-stakes strategic elements and enhancing race unpredictability. Highlighting advancements in ultra-fast EV recharging, PIT BOOST reflects the FIA and Formula E's role as a “race-to-road” technology platform, addressing key challenges in EV adoption, such as charging speed and efficiency. Mandatory for one of the races of a double header, PIT BOOST includes strict protocols, allowing only one car per team to utilise it at a time. 21 days prior to each race, teams will receive the race information including the PIT BOOST window and its deployment will operate independently of existing ATTACK MODE rules.
