I thought I was Formula One for life, but Formula E truly grabbed my attention. I spent many years in Formula One but when I first started to look into Formula E, it was full of new and emerging expertise and developing key automotive technology. This was a huge draw for me personally the more I looked into, the more I thought this was different and at the forefront of motorsport
Phil Charles, Panasonic Jaguar Racing Technical Manager
I’ve always followed Formula E and was actually on the original driver list for the inaugural season. My manager and I pushed to get into Formula E and spent a lot of time talking to Jaguar about how best to work my way into the sport, and I’m very thankful to now have a seat with Panasonic Jaguar Racing. At the moment, I’m spending hours on video conference calls with my engineers to debrief on all race weekends to make sure I’m ready to get back racing when the lights go green once again.
James Calado, #51
The new series, hosted by Amanda Stretton and Vernon Kay, will be a regular, insightful series fans can look forward to with new guests in each episode across Formula E and the Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY– the word’s first all-electric touring car series.
