2016/2017 Formula E silly season
Renault e.dams
They will retain Buemi and Prost Abt Audi Di Grassi and Abt are going to stay Dragon No driver signed yet. Currently Duval and D'Ambrosio. No rumours yet about the Dragon drivers. DS Virgin Bird and Vergne are now racing for them, but Vergne isn't that good and Bird is in talks with Jaguar. López could be in because of the Citroen support and also Bennani is talking about a possible Formula E drive and with the first race in Marrakech is very likely for next season, that could be a smart move. Mahindra Heidfeld would like to stay, but no signed driver yet. Senna is not that good, so possible both driver could be replaced. I don't think they'll have a Indian driver. Venturi Sarrazin and Conway could stay. No rumours yet Aguri They are going to be a Chinese team next season and so it's very like Ma is going to stay. Perhaps they'll get a Renault Junior driver like Latifi (first Montreal race), Ocon or Delétraz for the second seat. NEXTEV Piquet jr. is signed for another year. Turvey could stay, no rumours yet. Jaguar The first driver should be a British one and it could be one of these: Bird, Carroll, Davidson and Lynn. Perhaps they get two of them. I don't think they'll try a Indian because of Tata (Karthikeyan?), but who knows. No option are both Williams drivers Massa/Bottas |

Very, very disappointed to see both Renault and Abt retain their family drivers, they really do let the teams down horribly, but I guess it's not what you know but who you know! One podium per season is alright, right?

Hope to see Ocon in the series. This chap needs to show his bright, like he did in F3.
Alas, López deserves a formula racing return. Also Guerrreri could be considered that a team could snatch him from his touring car limbo in STC2000. The date in Buenos Aires with an Argie driver on track is needed. |
