Ps it did a 30.46 .... there's saloons quicker .... my PB up there is 29.60 ..... loads of razamatazz but the reality was dull


I agree re the spectacle. I watched a FormulaE a couple of times and just cannot get engaged with it. I know the current F1 cars are not exactly an Aero 8 with sidepipes (and I know this is actually more efficient) but they still make it more of an experience than FormulaE. I will swear my old Scalextric set sounded just like it.
