SANTIAGO IS BACK
IN A NEW LOCATION!
After two incredibile rounds of pure Formula E racing, we're back in Santiago of Chile for Round 3 of the 2018/2019 Campaign!
But everything's new: track location has been changed into the woods of the O'Higgins Park, the biggest park of the capital, and an interesting Half-Oval track has been built into it!
It will be SCORCHING HOT, 35 degrees expected under a bright sun: will some batteries blow up?
Take a look at the location! Reminiscent of Battersea Park? Don't worry, this will be much wider, faster, will plenty of overtaking opportunities.
But first, let's go back to the....
MARRAKESH e-PRIX
OH BOY, THAT WAS A STUNNER!
Chaos behind: as Lucas Di Grassi tangled into Pascal Wehrlein's Mahindra, while Stoffel Vandoorne outbraked himself to smash his teammate's Gary Paffet's HWA.
It was all looking good for BMW: comfortable 4 seconds lead, Da Costa leading Sims in apparent no-effort.
Than something happened: Da Costa's pace started dropping lap after lap, Sims got nervous as the Jerome D'Ambrosio's train began to cut the gap down to 2 seconds.
No radio working for Sims, D'Ambrosio in the mirrors...
Sims manages to avoid it but lost 3 positions: now D'Ambrosio leads with only a few minutes remaining: a LOOOOOOOOOOONG SC gave us only 1 lap left of racing.
Jean Eric Vergne showed once again the immense Techeetah's pace, by gaining more than 10 seconds on the race leaders after his early spin: finishing 5th in the race!
THAT'S A COOL LITTLE TRACK!
Turn 12 is going to be very tricky, braking while turning, this will catch people out: than we've got the two hairpins, good for Re-Gen.
In fact, this track has so many braking zones, that will allow drivers to go pretty much FLAT-OUT, with minimal energy saving!
That means, faster cars in race!
