What’s next for Formula E heading into season eight?

What's next for Formula E heading into season eight?

When Formula E returned to the streets of London in 2021 for the first time since 2015, it did so against a poignant backdrop. “Race against climate change” is the message on one of the team’s cars and the all-electric series set out as a high performance driver for manufacturers in the electric vehicle (EV) market.

When I sat down with Formula E CEO Jamie Reigle the distinctive hum of electric cars lapping in and out of London’s ExCel centre could be heard in the background, while torrential rain flooded the U.K. capital. By the time the race wrapped up on Sunday evening, with cars and pit garages packed up into shipping containers, one of London’s (electric) DLR stations just three miles down the road, Pudding Mill Lane, was underwater. The videos, broadcast on national news, left an uncomfortable aftertaste for the weekend in proving that climate change is here to stay no matter who is racing against it.
