When is the pre season testing? I can’t find anything to say about it. I know it’s in Spain but know it’s coming up soon. Just thinking there is still quite a few drivers yet to be announced and an announcement pending for the second Porsche team.

Much like how Mexico City is changing to the full course layout, will they modify the layout to accomodate the new Gen4 cars or will they keep it the same?

Mitch Evans, Jean-Eric Vergne, Jake Dennis and Oliver Rowland all in action. So far the Stellantis GEN4 dev car has completed 307 laps across day, while the Nissan has done 340 laps. Stellantis 0.5s quicker so far.

This is a street circuit I have made using GeoPrix that gives a visual idea of what a Chicago e-Prix track layout would look like. The basis is Soldier Field, of course. It's 3.62 kilometers long, it runs clockwise, and is very much a circuit where overtaking can be a bit of a challenge. As for the Attack Mode spot, I contemplated between having it be at Shedd Aquarium or Adler Planetarium. It even has a bit of Lake Shore Drive as part of the last two corners. If Formula E does a race in Chicago, then this could be a doable spot.

Mine is the 107th running of the Indianapolis 500 throwback livery that he ran for McLaren's 40th anniversary in 2023

What's your favorite livery from rosenqvist?

Aaaand the chicane is still there.

My dream is for FE to surpass F1 lap records (for some tracks to begin with).

Gen 4 is creating the framework for serious track-based racing.

Gen 4.5 "Evo" should get slicks & squeeze out some more peak power, 100-150 kW range.

Gen 5 needs +1000 kW, active aero to increase efficiency & performance. Could be controlled by the driver to choose between grip, top speed or efficiency. It also reduced two body kits to one. Active aero rear-wing braking during qualifying to counter the heavier FE vehicle weight during qualifying.

Anything I missed or something you guys think should be different in the future of FE?
