British company EM Motorsport is the only manufacturer to have passed the FIA requirements for T1 and T2 light panels, but the FIM has now announced that the '768-G2' panel by Spanish company Pixelcom (pictured at Assen) has successfully passed its required luminance and colour❀ coordinates tests.
"We are really proud to be t﷽he first company in the world having FIM hoꦦmologated Light Panels," said Hector Llop, Pixelcom CEO & Co-Founder.
"We installed our first units more than ten years ago and since then, many improvements have been introduced and many circuits are using our s𝓰olutions both for track days and events.
"With this homologation, we reach the most demanding features in the industry, keep𒈔ing safety standards as one of the most important aspects in motors🐬ports.
"Our goal🎃 is to provide the best equipment and services to all facilities needing these technological solutions, in order to improve in safety and track operations in this new era of motorcycling. "
The new combined F1 and MotoGP light panel requirement will also mean that every other championship competing on an FIA Gradeꦯ 1 or FIM Grade A circuit has access to the technology.
