Additionally, in the spirit of openness: we removed 2 statements because we were not able to fact check them in time for the broadcast... and we removed some rude words, in case you are listening with kids around...

// some clarifications from 8th Buggy Section Chairman Carlos Gomez

• EC B eligibility – any winners of EC B, the top 40 of EC A and any A Finalists for past 15 years are ineligible to race in the EC B
• Electric Time-out rules – originally intended to split the 10 minute technical time-out for the IC Buggy racers across the 3 finals for E Buggy, the proposal was increased to 5 minutes per E Buggy main final. This means a maximum of 15 minutes extra to the race schedule in case of technical time-outs.
• How Last Chance Finals and bump ups will work – intended for drivers who have bad luck, illness, etc., to recover and compete in the Final. The winner from each final will bump up and be number 13 for the next final.
• Penalty for driving Ongaroring track before race – first round of practice deleted
• HV batteries – delayed ruling to evaluate safety of the current maximum voltage rule
• Tyres – EC B and 40+ designated tyre will probably remain the same for 2026
