Going full electric next season ⚡️
I’m so happy to be joining @Opel for season 13 of the @FIAFormulaE world championship !!
It’s going to be an all new but very exciting challenge for me, and I already can’t wait to be part of it.
@stelank05 i wouldn’t expect it to be a full retest, probably just a medical exam and a brief ride along to assess capability. and tbh i don’t know much about the backlog since it’s been years since i had my test but apparently the work they’ve done to remove bots has helped?
see i don’t understand this because every single person i know has a personal experience with someone elderly who shouldn’t be driving anymore. i don’t see why this is an issue for people who feel themselves capable to continue driving. if you are capable you will pass.
@SportscarJoe possibly. maybe just panicked on seeing the SOS button hit and cut everything to be absolutely safe. rather a few moments of silence then accidentally showing or hearing something awful
@SportscarJoe yeah cutting visuals either completely or to a seperate shot is normal but the insant cut from commentary made it extra spooky. they returned to comms a few minutes later but it was a scary moment. genuinely can’t recall them ever doing that before
Update: Both driver and co-driver were able to get out of the car unassisted. They are both conscious and generally OK, and will be transported to hospital for further checks.
