Questions cover the founding of Formula E by Alejandro Agag, the first race in Beijing 2014, iconic street circuits around the world, the technology behind regenerative braking and Attack Mode, dominant drivers like Vergne and di Grassi, manufacturer involvement from Porsche to Jaguar, and the series' path to FIA World Championship status.
The first Formula E race took place on September 13, 2014, in Beijing, China. The championship was created by Alejandro Agag and supported by FIA President Jean Todt as a platform to promote electric vehicle technology through motorsport.
Attack Mode was introduced in Season 5 (2018-19) and gives drivers an extra 50kW of power for a set period. To activate it, drivers must drive through a designated off-racing-line activation zone, creating a strategic trade-off between gaining extra power and losing time by taking a slower line through the circuit.
Formula E has attracted major automotive manufacturers including Porsche, Jaguar, Nissan, Maserati, Mahindra, and DS Automobiles. The series serves as a development platform for electric vehicle technology that manufacturers can apply to their road car programs.
