I wouldn't say Ricardo Tormo is boring, not suited to car racing though.

Pechito said he disliked DS Virgin boss Alex Tai.
He's looking for other Formula E teams.
He wants to remain with Toyota in the FIA WEC, but he says his status is unclear.

MaskedRacer User has been fined for unsportsmanlike behaviour!
I checked out Formula E just to see the unique race tracks and all of the sportscar veteran drivers which make up the vast majority of the grid...still I can't muster to watch through the race. FE so far to me is just not appealing.

I'd like cars to be much more powerful, rather than removing the mid-race car swap.

Nevertheless, I have enjoyed some races. Some racetracks are better than others.

Nissan is back to a major motorsport championship.

To make it cheap, it's just a rebrand of Renault e.Dams.

Wonder how that effects Buemi, I’m sure Toyota won’t be happy to see him driving a Nissan.

The Formula E race seems to have been a significant issue in yesterday's municipal election in Montreal, where the incumbent mayor (Coderre) lost, and the new mayor (Plante) "has said that if she were elected, she would hold the race at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve or cancel it altogether, if possible."

Strange races; Bird dominant in race 1, even with a drive through still wins by over 10sec.

Then Mortara dominating race 2, only to make a small mistake. Very unfortunate for him. But the pace of the Venturi I'd say he'll be winning at some stage. That would have been Venturi's first win right? Oh well all the fans must be happy, the fan favourite won Mortara was fast in race 1 too, going 19th to 7th I think.

Rosenqvist very fast again like last year, championship favourite now? He was faster than Mortara, closed several seconds in the second stint, but not a clean weekend for him at all. He could have won both races.

Buemi, while fastest in practice 3, perhaps the DAMS car isn't as good on race pace and saving battery this year? He was in a lap earlier than everyone in race 2, and Prost wasn't much better. The look of Buemi during qualifying looked like he was about to kill someone. Was it Prost that hit the wall in quali then continued dragging signage around with him that got caught up with another car? How on earth does he get to finish the lap and start 18th without any penalty?

Much like Mitch in the Jag, fastest in both qualifying sessions (though the first one didn't count, and they conveniently didn't actually tell us what that lap was), fastest in practise 2 by a good margin, he, Buemi and Felix look to be fastest on raw speed, but obviously the Jags can't save juice because he wasn't fast in the race. Race 1 he was nowhere (although did start from the back of the grid and Lotterer strangely dropped 4sec off the pack on the restart, I guess there's no penalty for not maintaining 10 car lengths as in F1), but Mitch spent a large portion stuck behind Kobayashi and couldn't pass. I have to wonder if his second car is hugely faster than his first car though, as he only lost 2 secs in that last stint and even Lynn started with 5% more power but ended using it all up then running out. I don't know why Mitch started 4th after qualifying 2nd, though. Good job commentators.

And what happened to Bird and his pace from race 1? Perhaps they all caught him a little bit for race 2 and he couldn't find as much.

Abt fast in both races too actually, Audi still obviously fast but some average performances from the champ. Much like last year.

Di Grassi and Buemi 0 points from 2 races, how awesome is that? They'll need to play catch up for a while. People whinge about Hamilton, but he seems like an angel compared to Buemi when things don't go right for him. At this rate it probably is Rosenqvist looking best, but I hope it's a close season with lots of different winners. Just a shame it's the usual drive 3sec off the pace rubbish to get to the finish.

Too much Vernon Kay but yes, weird races with the championship favourites both not scoring in either. And the leader spinning at the start and at the end of the race? At least this doesn’t seem like it will be as easy for Audi as some feared.

Exit: oh, abt got disqualified from his first win, so Rosenqvist wins despite pointing the wrong way for part of the race, and Buemi now scores a whole point.

Same can be said for the driving. All of these drivers are proper professionals, yet you put them in these cars and they drive like Rob Austin having a stroke.
