Nissan driver Fenestraz says he is 'starting from a blank paper' as he prepares for the FormulaE season opener in Mexico.
Nissan Formula E driver Sacha Fenestraz reckons he is"starting from a blank paper" to prepare for the Mexico season opener as he makes the transition from Super Formula.The Franco-Argentine racer has shifted his focus to Formula E after finishing second in the standings in Japan's premier single-seater category, and concluding a race-winning campaign in SUPER GT.
"It [the new car] is very tricky for us as drivers to handle. You see a lot of drivers making mistakes because we're trying to find our limit, and trying to know what is the limit of this car. Fenestraz says the quick turnaround in moving from Super Formula to Formula E, particularly with the large differences between the cars, means that he would prefer more time behind the wheel - but is adamant that he is catching up in preparation for the Mexico City E-Prix in January."As a rookie, I would love to tell you, I wish I had two more months and to test every single day. But of course, that's not the reality.
"Me as a driver, of course, I'm ready, I'm always ready. I'm very excited. And it's a lot of work. But it's true, I wish I had a little bit longer because I just finished my season in Japan not long ago.
