Just had a fantastic day at Donington Park, watching the new Formula E cars practice.

The first race is on 13th Sept around the Olympic park in China it's being shown on ITV 4 and the season finishes 27th June next year in Battersea Park London

Brief Spec

200Kw peak power 133Kw Race power with the extra 67Kw in a push to overtake

5 Speed sequential box paddle shift

RWD only & no TCS

Michelin low profile treaded tyres only one compound

225KPH 0-100KPH 3 secs

The battery capacity is not sufficient for the whole race distance so each driver has two cars and swops cars @ the pitstop!!

Meh...I'll stick with Australian V8 Supercars.

Is that an electric race car?
