About this episode
Formula E pre-season testing returned to Valencia after a year away and gave hosts Andrew van de Burgt and Sam Smith several headaches during the traditional guessing game of who might be favourites for the coming season.
Was there any kind of hierarchy forming? What are the chances of Oliver Rowland going back-to-back? And just where does Stoffel Vandoorne fit in to the Gen4 driver market?
These are just some of the questions that are tackled in the latest episode of The Race Formula E podcast, which sees Smith getting trackside at Valencia where he was especially impressed by one manufacturer.
The second women’s test is also picked over, as are several listeners' questions as our team discuss Jacques Villeneuve’s questionable Formula E legacy, Felipe Massa’s poor choice in picking fights, and why a Chinese manufacturer is yet to be seen in recent Formula E action.
