RevolvingPrawn 1 Posted June 27, 2015 Ah I see lol. I dunno man, Vergne has had it once or twice now, but I'm just as perplexed as to who in their right mind would choose Piquet. Personally if they're gonna do a boost system then I think every driver should have one boost per car instead of just the drivers who people voted for. Makes it a lot fairer.I think over the next few years they will end up going to more proper circuits, but as a starting point to get the profile of the series up its gotta be street tracks unfortunately. But over time I'm definitely interested to see what FE could turn into :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lukedfrt 91 Posted June 27, 2015 Hopefully it will be an exciting race tomorrow, Buemi is probably favourite now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RevolvingPrawn 1 Posted June 28, 2015 Yay on qualifying lol. Buemi in 6th, Piquet in 16th :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBKF1 91 Posted June 28, 2015 Been so busy the last few days so not had time to go on the forum much, but watched the race yesterday and qualifying, and what a decider it should be! Come on Buemi!I don't see the negativity around Formula E, I can only see positives. For its first year, it has been a huge huge success. To visit 10 cities around the world, to attract the drivers it has, etc, it's been great.The racing has been really good too, and doing it on street circuits in cities has been the best thing I think. Better than having it at purpose built ones miles away from the fans.F1 could learn a lot from the way Formula E has gone about racing. It's been a completely new approach.

Lukedfrt 91 Posted June 29, 2015 The drama at the end... shame for Buemi. Thought Bird was going to win! Edit: Bird Wins! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBKF1 91 Posted June 29, 2015 If Buemi managed to get past Senna at the end when he was side by side then that would have been the best finish! Would've beaten the 2008 Brazilian GP finale.Formula E is so damn awesome. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Senna's crashed in pretty much every race so far so it wouldn't have been any different for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MBKF1 91 Posted June 29, 2015 I felt so sorry for Buemi, I wish he could've got past him.The Mahindra drivers (Senna and Chandhok) kind of surprised me at how slow they were this year on the whole. They never really stood out and they were constantly in the midfield.Venturi have been very unlucky this season too. Despite nearly winning something like 3 races, they never did, and they ended up way down the teams standings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
