As you may WELL know, I have been pretty opposed to Formula E cars. The Season 5 car has showed me that things are improving and have improved already.

Before I even looked at the numbers, I could tell that this cars felt more like... '''A CAR!! '''What I mean is, I wasn't having thoughts like, "this thing is slow, this thing is loose, I HATE THIS THING!!" I was just driving and enjoying myself. It feels more balanced.

This morning I looked at the numbers and there has been a huge change in the performance statistics for these cars across almost all categories. My season 4 and season 5 cars both have tier 3 upgrades, yet look at the differences; The brake distance is slightly worse, but everything else has had a huge upswing.

I still don't like saving my battery power however... fuel management is often a big part of racing that we rarely see in RR3. Many real life races have been won or lost on fuel management strategy. Although not having every other car in the field play by the same rules is odd. We should have the advantage of a 1st place start with a lead for this to emulate an actual race scenario; where you have skipped a pit stop and are fuel saving.

With the boosted stats in mind & with cars that now feel more balanced, I think Formula E will be okay in the long run. Good job FM.

I still prefer an engine ROAR rather than a engine whine ... but you can't have it all ;-)
