Mercedes and Venturi have been given the green light to take part in the second race at the Diriyah𓄧 E-Prix following an FI♏A investigation.

The investigation was launched to determine what caused Edoardo Mortara’s big crash after a practice start at the end of practice on 🐭Saturday, which ultimately led to all four Mercedes-powered Formula E cars being barred from contesting qualifying.

Mortara was taken to hospital by ambulance following his heavy shunt with the TecPro barriers in Saudi Arabia, but has been declared fit to race after underg♎oing precautionary checks. 

Analꩲysis into the accident found that Mortara’s crash had been caused by a rear-braking failsafe system failure after an initial front brake issue on his Venturi ca♍r.

All fo🐷ur cars have subsequently been cleared by the FIA to contest the second race in Saudi Arabia.

“First and most importantly, we are pl𝄹eased that Edo is safe and well following his accident in FP3,” a Mercedes team statement read.

“Our analysis 🥃since then has enabled us to understand what occurr♎ed and put in place suitable counter measures.

“The braking system on Formula E cars is designed so 🌱that if the front brakes fail, the rear brake system is activated as a fail-safe.

“In this instance, an incorrect software parameter that meant the rear brake system didn't act𒐪ivate as intended and the fail-safe did not kick in.

“We h💮ave now corrected the software problem and demonstrated to the FIA’s satisfaction that the matter has been resolved.

“As a result, the FIA will permit all Mercedes-powered cars to race this ev൩ening.”

The second Diriyah E-Prix night race starts at 5pm UK t🐟ime on Saturday.
