This protocol can be used for all forms of racing. Users can take the liberty to design a competition that uses all or specific parts of this document. As new information, fuels and technologies emerge, addendums or compete new protocols will be developed.
Rationale:
A major transformation is occurring in the automotive industry driven by energy and environmental issues.
Racing series can accelerate the solutions by creating technical specifications and sporting regulations to advance technologies for alternative fuels and new propulsion systems. To expedite this process, a protocol is required that establishes a sound scientific and engineering basis for racing's sanctioning organizations.
This protocol will enable racing to become technically relevant for current and future products. The concept of green racing will also educate and create a new public awareness of green technologies for motor vehicles.
