Your description is very good, but how come every race i watch i get bored and can't find any excitement? they feel like some Gig Nikko

Such a cool channel. I was so close to visiting Japan one point myself. I had experience with modeling and in late 2015 I was in contact with Capcom about the facial likeness role of Leon for the Resident Evil 2 Remake. I failed to mention I also have a voice acting background, in the end I lost the part and I can't forgive myself for wasting such an opportunity to visit Asia.

I have watched it on the TV from London I think but didn't realise it was so different. You certainly gave us a greater insight into the sport.

It would be good to see racing on an open circuit, like Thruxton, where noise complaints are common. The minimal tyre change policy is great for proper tyre developement and of real use in the real world.

They're at Misano next week. Albeit on an altered layout for FE

Great insight and looked a fantastic weekend of racing and for Nissan to get pole but got pipped at the line 😢 but I follow Formula E from a distance but noticing so far this year Nissan are take the fight to the more established teams and its a very competive racing is a full complement lets hope they carry it on till the rest of the season 👍 Look forward to seeing your other content Pete with Nissan 😊

That jump was CRAZY! I really wish Nissan would make a road going version of that Leaf Nismo. I saw it a couple of years back in the Giga Theatre at Fully Charged. It’s bloomin’ awesome! Will we see you at the London E-Prix?

Fascinating Pedro. Definitely the future as the technologies improve going forward. Bet you had a great time in Japan. Thanks for this one.

This is fantastic. I would love to go and watch formula e race this year for sure ❤

I have watched FE since it started and ITV ran the races live but since it's behind a paywall in the UK I've lost interest. Also it gets a bit boring when it is always on street circuits with walls as they tend to all look the same. IMHO the Boost is a bit unnecessary now the batteries last a whole race.

You took the words out of my mouth, if they want to compare themselves to F1 then use the same circuits and give the drivers unlimited power, this is endurance racing, not a good advert either for electric road cars - perhaps that’s why it’s no longer on free to view TV?

Who cares if they don’t use petrol engines, it’s a “car” and it’s racing. Visited Japan a few years ago, loved every minute of a very different culture to anything I had experienced.

Hello!!

Unless pickup in other comments, if safety car out on track they add laps, driver has to balance out his power, and qualifying setup is much better than F1, great blog I watch Formula E more than F1,

Im a perrol head and a f1 fan. I discounted formula E until this video. Very well explained i didnt know all these things about the sport

Hi 👋

I went to Gen1 testing in Donnington, all of the UK races, and been an advocate for Formula E. Then they hid the racing behind a Paywall - so, I haven't continued my interest... like many UK TV viewers, we have the BBC license fee, plus digital streaming platforms. (We have SKY & Netflix). This costs over £85 a month... to add TNT is a further £30 a month for very little content. As a Star Trek fan, I would like to have paramount plus, but I don't due to cost. Sadly, FormulaE chose the wrong provider for me, so as they say, I'm out.

Tesla could “go bust” while its stock could fall to $14, Per Lekander, a hedge fund manager who has been shorting Elon Musk’s electric car maker since 2020, told CNBC on Wednesday. His comments come after Tesla reported 386,810 vehicle deliveries in the first quarter of the year, significantly below even the lowest market estimates. Lekander joins a growing chorus of negative voices on Tesla which is facing a price war, intense competition from Chinese players and weakening demand for its electric cars.

The all sound like electric go-karts lol and they are

Really want to see FE on the proper circuits. That will be the real test. F1 has become boring in many ways. FE has the excitement & close racing. It just need to get out on the better circuits & see if it transposes across. If it does then F1 could be killed off.

F1 racing with milk floats😂😂😂

no one should watch formula E; it is a disease and a disgrace on real racing!
