Formula E is back on track for Rounds 10 and 11. After the amazing Monaco E-Prix, the championship is ready for the Indonesian double-header.
Before the Jakarta E-Prix, Formula E didn’t race for many weeks, but important things took place off track. Jeff Dodds has been announced as the new Formula E CEO, starting on June 5th. During the break, the drivers’ lineups changed, with Roberto Merhi joining Mahindra for the rest of the season, taking the place of Oliver Rowland.
Did somebody say double-header? 😏
