Jaguar's Formula E debut: What we've learned so far

Jaguar was the big focus as Formula E 2016/17 testing kicked off this week. The British manufacturer has not troubled the top of the times - but what have we learned from its first public running?

Information has been sparse from Jaguar's private testing programme ahead of its Formula E debut. We knew it had opted to use all 15 days that it had available. We knew Adam Carroll had been a key player. And we knew it would be using the official Donington Park test to evaluate its driver line-up.

But that left a lot of unanswered questions.

A manufacturer ending a 12-year absence topline racing was always going to capture interest. The fact that it's one of British motorsport's most iconic marques entering the young electric single-seater series only intensifies that.
