Sporting Regulations – 2022 season
New format of MotoE™ events:
Starting from 2022, standard MotoE™ events will feature two Free Practice sessions and a Qualifying on Friday, and two races: one on Saturday and the other on Sunday. Each race will normally be after the Grand Prix classes.
E-pole will be replaced by more traditional Qualifying sessions: Qualifying session format: Q1 (10 minutes) – 10 min break – Q2 (10 minutes)
– Qualifying 1 will comprise the slowest 10 riders from the combined results of FP1 and FP2. The duration of Qualifying 1 will be 10 minutes with no limitation on the number of laps. The two fastest riders in Qualifying 1 will be permitted to recharge their machines in pit lane and also receive an additional rear tyre.
– Qualifying 2 will comprise the fastest eight riders from the combined results of FP1 and FP2, plus the fastest two riders from Qualifying 1. The duration of Qualifying 2 will be 10 minutes with no limitation on the number of laps.
