a question with the quality and power of batteries improving can your bikes be driven as fast as the rider wants or is there a trade of so the bike gets back to the finish and completes the course ? Other teams may run different strategies but we tend to set the bikes to run flat out for the duration.
During testing and practice we can give the riders different options of power maps, regen maps and boost buttons etc in order to determine the optimum map for the actual event. This is why for example we hit 165mph through the speed trap during practice and "only" 155 in the race.
Interestingly the limiting factor at the moment is not battery capacity, and normally the rider will have different options (maps) to switch to if one or other of the parameters (such as an overheat warning) is exceeded, which may only be temporary until whatever was causing the alarm is back under control. But generally the aim is to let the riders go flat-stick and race the course.
Hope that all makes sense
