A new venue, pleasant surprises and unforeseen problems were just some of the talking points to come out of pre-season testing in Spain for the all-electric championship
Formula E testing took place last week against all the odds and despite huge uncertainty in the days leading up to the event after a last-minute venue change. Jaguar’s Mitch Evans set the pace across four days of running, posting a 1m27.461s during the final session on Friday morning around the Jarama Circuit in Spain. But no less than five other teams and drivers finished fastest in the other sessions, suggesting this will be another tightly contested season in the all-electric championship.
82s which is faster than current Formula 1 cars, was not the technical focus from testing, though, with tyres being the word on everyone’s lips. Hankook has supplied a softer compound of tyre for the upcoming season after drivers complained about the lack of grip with the previous iteration of rubber.
