Technology Equivalence in LM P1 modified for Sebring

The latest Equivalence of Technology (EoT) table, which governs the LM P1 category in WEC, saw an adjustment to the fuel allocation per lap for prototypes lined up at 1000 miles of Sebring, on March 15.

If both Toyota TS050 Hybrid bénéficieront de 61,3 MJ / tour issus du carburant sur la piste floridienne, les LM P1 non-hybrides atmosphériques, à savoir les R13 – Rebellion Racing et la BR1 – DragonSpeed pourront compter sur 95,8 MJ / tour, quand les BR1 – SMP Racing (avec leur bloc AER turbo) se verront attribuer 103,1 MJ / tour.

In comparison with the last round in Shanghai and compared to the mileage of the American circuit, higher than that of the Chinese track, the fuel allocation per lap does not change for the Toyota TS050s.

The non-hybrid LM P1s with an ATM engine, on the other hand, lose a little more than 2,3 MJ/rev, the non-hybrid LM P1s powered by a turbo unit a little more than 3 MJ.

The other EoT parameters, namely the fuel flow, the quantity per relay and the restrictor do not change. The FIA ​​has also revealed certain obligations in the event of switching a hybrid LM P1 to unsafe mode.

Only four people may be present in the work zone: the car manager, a fire extinguisher attendant, a mechanic equipped with the necessary safety equipment and intervening to return the car to safe mode, and another mechanic who will ensure the safety of the mechanic working on the prototype.
