The pair discuss the insane acceleration of the new car and how its efficiency and emphasis on performance is set to re-define perceptions on electric racing cars as Formula E gets set for its fourth era later this year. A discussion between The Race and Rossiter also unfolds on the growing comparisons between the world’s only all-electric world championship and the much more electric new F1 rules. Additionally, Rossiter explains how the active differential on the car, its permanent four wheel drive and two-tiered aerodynamic set-up will be tackled by the teams and drivers in private testing and then in the run up to the season starting and a new way of racing is expected to flourish.
