Formula E's new toys ahead of its second-generation swansong
Formula E welcomes a mix of past, present and future for the 2021-2022 season. The old guard facing off against a sprinkling of newcomers, a fresh qualifying format amid a sporting rules shake-up and a range of minor tweaks to the existing all-electric machines are all subplots to the final campaign before the next generation arrives
There’s more than meets the eye to the upcoming eighth season of Formula E, as it awkwardly perches on the precipice of a switch to an all-new set of technical regulations.
The 2021-22 FE season has a similar stature to the 2021 Formula 1 season in that sense: outwardly, it’s a weird transitional year with no wholesale changes to any of the cars, and a placeholder for whatever formula we get with Gen3, since this year’s motors and other ancillary components were homologated last season.
