Formula E Unplugged

Andretti. A name synonymous with American motorsport. But can the team and hotshot driver Jake Dennis make their mark on Formula E?

With an introduction to the all-electric motorsport, we meet the two German teams with differing expectations for the season. The family-run racing outfit from Bavaria, ABT, just wants to be competitive, whilst the motorsport giant, Porsche, wants to win, win, win.

In a series like Formula E, experience counts - many have tried but few have succeeded. Two new faces join the paddock for Season 9: McLaren’s Jake Hughes and Nissan’s Sacha Fenestraz. Both are young men trying to prove their worth as we explore their journey on track and in life. We also catch-up with Season 8’s only surviving rookie, Dan Ticktum, as he continues to prove his worth with NIO333.

Time heals all wounds... Following Sam Bird’s forgettable Season 8 - his only season without a race win - he returns to Season 9 with a spring in his step. A podium finish in the second race of the season shows early signs that the old competitor is back, but disaster strikes, and the Englishman must fight for his season and his place in the sport.

In Formula E, teams are either manufacturers or customers. Whist the manufacturers have huge backing, the customers have to show nous and to think differently. Envision are the epitome of that. We look at how they’ll push for both the drivers and constructors Championships with their two very different drivers.

As we come to the climax of the season, the action ramps up. With four drivers in the hunt for the championship title heading into the penultimate race weekend, we see drama unfold with crashes and incidents as dreams will be broken but for one, immortality awaits.

Can Porsche's lofty ambitions be realised in the ultra-competitive world of electric racing?

Returning to the Formula E paddock after a one year hiatus, can the family-run ABT team find success in the hyper-competitive world of electric racing?

Getting into Formula E is one thing, staying is another entirely. Can young guns Sacha Fenestraz and Jake Hughes prove their worth in a series where many have tried but only few have succeeded? They join Season 8’s only surviving rookie, Dan Ticktum, who discovers that Formula E is about much more than just performance on the track.

Lucas di Grassi is many things. First driver to sign up to Formula E, first winner, first driver to 1,000 points in the Championship… but what does the future hold for the man who helped build the sport?

1957. The last time a Maserati car won a World Championship race. With the motorsport giant returning to a racing series for the first time in over 60 years, can Team Principal James Rossiter guide the team to success?

Sam Bird has done what many drivers in Formula E could only dream of. But following a forgettable Season 8 - his only season without a race win - can he get back to winning ways?

In Formula E, teams are either manufacturers or customers. Whilst the manufacturers have huge backing, the customers have to think differently to keep up. Can customer team Envision Racing take the fight to those manufacturers and claim top spot in the world's most competitive motorsport?

Jake Dennis, Pascal Wehrlein, Mitch Evans, Nick Cassidy. Four names. Four drivers in contention to take the title of World Champion. Who will emerge victorious at the end of Season 9?

It all comes down to the final weekend of Season 9. Who will come out on top?
