Formula E is the pinnacle of Motorsport

Except the motor part

Ngl i follow Formula E just for the stupid shit that happens every race
Literally the funniest shit ever

[AlexSprenger]

Their camera operators are also at the pinnacle of motorsport

There is something inherently funny about hearing JUST enough of Free Bird's solo to not get a copyright strike

[tanay_real]

it is one of the motorsports of all time

[DannyPlaysStuff]

In motorsport anything can happen. And in case of FE, that happens almost on regular basis.
Just when you think situation couldn't get any better, some weird shit will happen again at blindingly fast timing.

Nick Cassidy took pole on the 2nd NYC race and was about to be interviewed when the interviewer told him he's starting last. 😂

“And on that day Formula E speedrunning was changed forever”

[Salafessien]

"But then Hefest got this run" is the only one missing

[sirlimonada]

the fact that the sound moves from right to left with the cars makes it better

[gaetanocioffi]

This is a certified Cassidy master strategy momento™

[elonmusk]

It's absolutely mind blowing how somehow some of the best drivers are driving like absolute lunatics in Formula E

[bigguy]

Formula E should be preserved on the basis of simply being the funniest shit to grace this sport. You could put Sochi, Yas Marina, Barcelona and Paul Ricard on the calendar and I guarantee some weird but batshit insane thing would happen

Ah yes, the Michelin all-weather race tire and the commitment to using less and recycling more. Instead we get a bunch of people in cars that go think a "gap" is any space between two cars or the circuit walls and will go for it regardless of size, and tires that grip nothing in the rain. When asked "How do you recycle these tires better than road cars" the answer was "Oh we burn them in a generator instead of a pile, or we make playground pebbles

Just some context, the previous round the track was slightly wet here. It started to rain harder while they were driving, but it wasn't too bad. The other side of the track was still dry though, and that's where they were coming from. They went from dry into heavy downpour. It was like they hit a wall of water. They just started aquaplaning and their visibility was instantly gone. It is dangerous to brake way too soon if there isn't a full course yellow, so there was literally nothing they could do.
The full course yellow was called very quickly, but it was sadly too late. In fact, full course yellow was called while the cars were aquaplaning. Within 2 minutes it went from dry to undriveable. There was no rain in the forecast and it hit everyone unexpectedly. They're lucky this isn't F1 since they go faster and are even worse on sudden lakes. If they didn't have all season tires there probably would've been serious injuries or people could've died right there and then.

The city conditions make weather like this a bit more likely, but it could've happened in any kind of motorsport where aquaplaning can happen.

If you haven't seen this race or the highlights, then I recommend you to watch them.

No, Alpha. YOU'RE the pinnacle of motorsport.

The "Controversial Moments" videos by Formula E is just entertainment lol

[mtlfpv]

Turns out all weather tyres aren't all weather anymore when you wear most of the tread depth away.

I swear every time I watch FE something ridiculous happens

[datanromar]

0:15 is the pinnacle of video edition.

[SirioResteghini]

Man you have mastered the art of using We're Finally Landing

EDIT: a serious comment on the race. I don't think it's fair that Mortara and others got penalties for speeding under FCY without the possibility to appeal, given the track conditions. So I guess someone will have to update the rulebook. Dunno why I'm writing this comment here but oh well
