Big crash for Buemi in FP1. The circuit looks pretty good. Fast and flowing.

Pretty much exactly what I thought might happen when I mentioned turn 9. Very Adelaide turn 8-esque.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

There was also another crash earlier in qualifying involving Bird and Mortara, and both Mahindra and ABT have withdrawn due to concerns over their suspension.

I have only seen the crashes, and I'm expecting a big pileup on lap 1 in that corner

This track is crazy for Formula E standards, feels like they're having full on oval crashes in turn 9, goddamn

And the speed of it, how are they going to conserve energy?

Could be very interesting at the end...

Hat trick for Buemi....

At least Pascal won't dominate this one
