After 727 days of waiting, Formula E is back on the tarmac in Brooklyn (New York) this weekend for the tenth and eleventh rounds of season 7 of the World Championship in the discipline. Follow the qualifying session live on Auvio from 6.30pm, then the first of the two New York E-Prizes live on Tipik and Auvio from 10.25pm!
Brilliant in the last two races in Puebla (Mexico) where he was on the podium twice (one victory, third place), the Swiss Edoardo Mortara (Venturi Racing) now occupies first place in the standings (72 points) with ten steps ahead of his closest pursuer, the Dutchman Robin Frijns (Virgin Racing).
Little to his business during the last four E-Prix (two withdrawals, a seventh place, a thirteenth place), Stoffel Vandoorne (Mercedes-Benz EQ Formula E Team) has dropped to seventh place in the standings (54 points), but the Belgian driver intends to take advantage of his stay in the United States to move up the hierarchy. The winner of the second E-Prix de Rome will have the “advantage” of starting in the second of the four qualifying groups, which will allow him to benefit from a better track during the qualifying session.
After this double header New Yorker, the Formula E World Championship will head to London (24-25 / 07) then Berlin (14-15 / 08), where the first World Champion in the history of the discipline will be crowned.
