Ollie Bearman’s recent incident has ignited significant discussion, largely because it validates concerns that were present even before the championship began. The introduction of new Power Units, coupled with the critical need to manage energy and recharge batteries, creates substantial speed differentials on track. This dynamic has consistently been identified as a potential safety risk in races.
In response to these growing concerns, the FIA has clarified that meetings are already planned to assess current regulations and consider any necessary modifications to address these issues.
