Results

The FSA and FSF quiz result has been evaluated and the registered teams list is published here (link),

We are sorry to announce that yesterday’s quiz was not error-free.

Since most of you had inquiries about the same question, we decided to address all protests raised by multiple teams publicly.

Q1 – Question voided
The question was stated incorrectly and will not be counted toward the quiz results.

Q3 – Question voided
We agree that the FSA Competition Handbook does not clearly state that the FS rules regarding TSAL are void. Therefore, this question will not be counted toward the quiz results.

Q5 & Q10 – No issues
Your protest was noted, but no action is required. The quiz engine counted your answers as correct.

We will respond to all other protests directly by email.

Rule EV 5.8 2025v1.1

11. December 2025

For some reasons, we are allowing last year’s EV5.8 rules to apply this year. These reasons are:

  • The wording for EV5.8.4 changed from v1.0 to v1.1, it makes it now harder for teams to build a rules compliant battery. So timing is not how it should be.
  • EV 5.8.6 in its current wording will require additional temperature sensing which will lead to improvised and potentially insecure solutions.
  • The whole scrutineering/evaluation of good sensor mounting got much more complicated and fairness is more difficult.
  • Economy in this year is struggling, so sponsor money is even sparse so some teams want to reuse their old battery

Teams must choose at scrutineering what ruleset they want to use for this event.

Chassis Identification (FS Rule A2.2.2)

26. June 2025

FS Rule A2.2.2 in its 2025 version allows teams to manufacture a new chassis without any changes to the last year’s vehicle. In order to enforce that a new chassis is actually manufactured, we will mark the chassis at the first competition that the vehicle is being used in.
In the case of FSA 2025, the marking on the front hoop will be “A 25” which means that the chassis was first used in an official event on July 20th 2025, making it eligible for use in other events until July 19th 2026.

Teams using a 2024 chassis that has already competed late in the 2024 season will receive the corresponding “Xy 24” marking.

Teams using laminate to encapsulate the front hoop: please remove the laminate in a small area as indicated on the drawing, without grinding away any of the metal of the front hoop.
