If anyone wants to watch some racing this weekend I highly suggest checking out Formula E.

It’s spec series electric racing, the latest gen 3 cars have 350kw of power and top speeds up to 200mph.

    I tried to watch a race on TV several times, but between the weird squeaky sounds and the city tracks, which severely lack any character, it’s not for me.

    Maybe it’s enjoyable in person, also the tickets are actually affordable.

      The sound does take some getting used to, but I drive an EV so am some what acclimatised. I do like the fact you can hear the tyres though.

      Personally the street circuits work for me, for formula e, as the close walls increase the drama. I don’t enjoy them for formula 1 because they make over taking so hard, but that’s not really an issue here.

    Absolutely enjoyed Formula E when there was a E-Prix in Zürich (like 30 min from where I live), I feel like more overtakes or just more in general happens than in Formula 1 (as I have said feel) but I totally forgot it exists. Thank you for reminding me :)

    I would say it’s fine. Just mark your post with [OT] so people know it’s off topic but related to formula 1.

    F-E is so much better in person

    Saw them in Portland this year, the sound was so much less harsh and way more enjoyable. The squeaking was the tyre noise, which was a new one to get used to.

    Absolutely produces some great racing though. Everyone should check out their Monaco race if you want to know how much better for overtaking these cars are.

    Today’s race starts in about 10 minutes, if people want to watch.

    Jaguar lockout on the front row, and title contenders Dennis, Cassidy and Wehrlein, in 7th, 9th and 10th.

    How to watch

    I’ve tried getting into Formula E a few times but the tracks are so boring and ugly, and the sound is borderline painful

    the racing is pretty good though so I’ll try and catch the race this weekend

    is Dario still commentating? I love that guy
