Formula E 2018/19
Discussion
Track was the worse one of the season way too tight but still miles better than 95% of the f1 races last year. Bird was on form today apart from the attack on lott but seen way worse which wasn't penalisied.
Still miles better than the gen1 car and its great too see single seater cars that can follow and actually race.
Great news about the London Rd next year very tempted too actually attend tbf.

Time for the stupid chicanes too go just no need for them but apart from that a decent race. Great race between Evans and lotter and well deserved win for jaguar too. Apparently last jaguar race win for a manufacture was back in 93 with twr.
Sam bird needs too make full use of the next round with the drop out of top 5 so is in a better place for quali.

I've never really watched Formula E before but a couple of full races appeared on my YouTube recommended section so I've been watching them, and very suprised at just how good they are. It seems to not suffer from a lot of negatives of F1 such as the cars being able to race close together with no performance loss, tyres that are durable enough to survive some huge lockups, drivers don't seem to mind a bit of contact and the cars seem to be able to survive it, and the attack mode seems to provide a good balance of gain/loss depending upon the race situation, especially when compared to DRS which is pretty much just a sure pass system on most tracks.
TBH I don't even mind the lack of engine sounds as you can hear a lot of other stuff such as the tyre squeals, marbles, impacts etc... which makes a nice change.
Going to watch more races now as they've been crackers so far.

What an end to this race, multiple strategies, various things in play right until the line, fab.
TBH I don't think I've enjoyed an F1 race this much since the 90s.

I am glad you all enjoyed the race. I was there working and it was one of the toughest tracks to build since FE started. It’s really nice to hear that all the hard work and long hours by the staff to get the race on made for an enjoyable spectacle.
I think the next race in Paris is going to be a very exciting.

Good race?? It's second only to BTCC in incidents and at least the tracks in BTCC allow the drivers to get away with little damage! As for the Rome race that track was abysmal. What happened to the long straight from last year? Generally speaking the Qualifying session is cruddy. Fan Boost is a joke, Always the same few drivers. As for the driving standards at least Lotterer has learned his lesson, just. The others including the current "champion" seem to think they are Matt Neal.
