Formula E is gearing up for another exciting week of racing in the FIA Formula E World Championship. After an impressive 1-2 victory in Monaco, Jaguar TCS Racing is back in the title hunt with Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy. The upcoming race in Berlin presents a new challenge for the drivers, with a 2.343km anti-clockwise circuit that offers plenty of overtaking opportunities.
The weekend of two races will take place from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, with various sessions and races scheduled. The weather forecast indicates dry conditions, with a mix of clouds and sun, and temperatures reaching around 21 degrees.
Looking back at last year’s race in Berlin, Jaguar hopes to repeat their success with another 1-2 finish. Mitch Evans led the team to victory in the first race, while Nick Cassidy, then racing for Envision Racing, claimed the top spot in the second race.
