How a new world-class series 'without the bull****' is faring
If you recall anything about MotoE's first season, chances are the fire that wrecked its paddock will come to mind. But where the on-track action is concerned, the series' quirks - a result of technological limitations - have given it a unique identity
As the newest addition to Dorna's family of championships sharing the ticket with its main attraction MotoGP, MotoE has inevitably looked like a quirky oddity in its inaugural season - what with its ultra-short calendar, ultra-short races and extremely eclectic grid, the biggest name on which is an ex-MotoGP race winner returning after a decade's hiatus.
Even in the paddock itself it inescapably sticks out like a sore thumb, standing by itself away from the main MotoGP, Moto2 and Moto3 facilities, its bikes either grouped in the single-building garage tent or at the recharging stations.
