First pictures of Jaguar Formula E car's track debut
Jaguar has run its Formula E car on track for the first time, Autosport can reveal
The British manufacturer is returning to motorsport with a factory programme in the all-electric single-seater championship.
Details of Jaguar's season-three powertrain remain confidential but the car ran on track for the first time at Mallory Park on Wednesday.

Autosport understands Jaguar plans to reveal the full colour scheme and demonstrate the car at the July 2-3 Battersea Park finale.
