The Austrian championship was running a special schedule of the events just to make it possible for the car to finish each loop. Also I heard the car wasn't following the FIA rules in terms of some safety features etc. It was more of a running prototype.Quote:

Btw. Baumschlager himself said that the Austrian event schedule was exactly the same as the year before, so dunno where the schedule rumors come from.
Even if it would need some itenary changes or even short charging after each stage, who cares? A rally schedule is anything but set in stone for all eternity. But the way fast charging is developing I doubt they need to be any massive changes (check out the upgraded Taycan or Polestar 5 values).
The only real issue is that there needs to be an artificial sound at some level, likely dictated by the rules.
