    Another broken on-board camera from Lotterer's car - just shows how close Formula E cars can race compared to F1... If you're in an F1 car and get a bit too close, it looks a bit like this from earlier today...

    Andre Lotterer is in the pits... oh dear. Formula E cars don't pit for strategy!

    Today for the first time there is three rounds of four-minute Attack Modes to use up, which is tough on the battery, so conserving energy is even more important.

  8. Remember to conserve batterypublished at 21:06 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    This season, the new ‘Gen2’ cars include long-life batteries, which contain enough energy to hold on for the 45-minutes-plus-one-lap race duration, and produce a maximum of 250kw of power. However, drivers must preserve energy during the race in order to cross the line with some battery life remaining.

    The challenge is similar to the traumatic experience of preserving the lingering one percent battery on a smartphone, with no wall socks in sight.

    Lopez has been spun around, but rescues it and there's no more dramas in the first corner.

    It's his first pole position since beating his team-mate Valtteri Bottas at Zandvoort in 2010 - who also got a pole position this weekend.

    He's had 10 pole positions in his racing career.

  13. Attack mode & Fanboostpublished at 21:02 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    As part of strategy, there's attack mode.

    Drivers leave the racing line and follow some arrows on the track which gives them 25kw of extra energy to deploy throughout the race.

    All the drivers must use up their allocated attack mode before the end of the race.

    By now you should have placed your Fanboost vote, to give a driver an extra 25kw of energy to deploy at some point during the race.

  14. Mexico E-Prixpublished at 20:59 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    Lucas Di Grassi's victory in Mexico goes down as one of the greatest ever Formula E races.

    That overtake on rookie Pascal Wehrlein, who led the race, just metres before the line with just one percent battery had us all with our jaws on the floor.

  16. Since New Zealand have just lost the Cricket World Cup...published at 20:55 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    It looks like it's down to Kiwi Mitch Evans to take one for the team and bring their spirits up.

  17. No, really though who can win?published at 20:55 British Summer Time 14 July 2019

    Qualifying whittled it down to Jean-Eric Vergne, Lucas Di Grassi, and Mitch Evans.

    Sebastien Buemi's victory in yesterday's race, opened the door to his championship hopes, but they were quickly closed again in qualifying today as he needed the three points for pole position and the 25 from a race win today to win the overall championship.

    Vergne is leading with 130 points.

    Evans needs to win today and take fastest lap to win the championship.

    Di Grassi just needs a race win, and Vergne to be no higher than ninth.

    Sebastien Buemi set the bar as the first man out in the superpole shootout. Afterwards, he said: "P3 considering I was in group one is a good achievement for me, so let's see what I can do in the race this afternoon."
