Formula E Financially Stable and Interest Booming

[BoogerMac]

As much as this series gets bashed around here, seems like the rest of the world and manufacturers view things a bit different...

The Manufacturers and their PR machines hyped a lot of technical formulas before and then dropped it, latest example: LMP1 with Hybrid.

Formula is pushed by media and some manufacturers as PR Gag, telling us they go green now. But believe me, they will drop it and then get over to the next one... let´s say fuel cells.

Last week Gerhard Berger and Dr. Helmut Marko were asked in TV: Do you think Formula is racing?

G.B.:: "No"
H.M: : " I`ve seen one race, never will watch another. No, this not racing and not it´s furure."

Nothing more to say.

Porsche is likely to enter soon. What is a pity for WEC. But I do like the better drivers can still make a difference there (I have seen Rosenqvist race in 2014...no surprise what he is doing).
BUT the series has become very greedy. VIP tents are ridiculous.

Hoping for some serious racing with the new batteries. No car change and no mega-saving on every straight. Let them race properly.

Electric cars are the future of road traffic.
