FIA Announce New Formula E Series
The FIA has announced a new racing series – Formula E, starting in 2014.
Set to race on street circuits around the globe, Formula E is for electric vehicles only. You can read more at the BBC site.
My only concern is the final line in this article:
…when a driver comes into the pits, he won’t just change his tyres.
He’ll change the whole car – swapping it for a new, and fully charged machine.
Surely this flies in the face of everything the FIA is attempting to do in other formulae in cost cutting? Is there no way batteries can be switched in the pits, or is this just journalistic licence?
How To Pass The Theory Test
The easy way to pass the Theory Test is to know your subject – as long as you know the information in the Highway Code, Know Your Traffic Signs and Driving, The Essential Skills you won’t have any trouble.
Watch this short video for some help and advice on the test itself:
eBooks
Various driving publications are available as eBooks from the DSA, the latest of which is the highly recommended Essential Skills.
You can find it at The Stationery Office along with many others.
Independent Driving Diagrams
Following feedback from Instructors and test candidates, Examiners will no longer automatically show a diagram during the Independent Drive section of the practical test, although they will ask if the candidate would like to see one.
