The first ever Cape Town EPrix was packed with incident, controversy and a move by Antonio Felix da Costa that will go down in championship legend. But how did he pull it off? He tells the Formula E podcast as Jack Nicholls, Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt ponder its magnificence in addition to several intricate storylines from a memorable weekend in South Africa.
Nick Cassidy’s contretemps with his former Super Formula sparring partner Sacha Fenestraz, the red flag debacle in qualifying that ended Sam Bird’s EPrix before it had even begun and a bizarre weekend for Cassidy’s teammate Sebastien Buemi are all covered off.
Our specialist Formula E trio also asked if Cape Town will become a staple of the calendar or if it will go the way of Montreal and Seoul as a spectacular one off.
In addition to da Costa we also hear from Buemi and also Maserati MSG’s team boss James Rossiter who will have to try and pick up his team after a disastrous start to its maiden Formula E campaign.
