Formula E is gearing up for another exciting race week in the FIA Formula E World Championship. After a stunning 1-2 victory in Monaco, Jaguar TCS Racing is back in the title race 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 opportunities for overtaking.
The double-header weekend will take place from Friday afternoon to Sunday afternoon, with various sessions and races scheduled. The weather forecast predicts dry conditions with a mix of clouds and sunshine, and temperatures reaching around 21 degrees.
Looking back at last year’s race in Berlin, Jaguar will be hoping to repeat their success with a 1-2 finish. Mitch Evans led the team to victory in race one, while Nick Cassidy, then racing for Envision Racing, claimed the top spot in race two.
