The problem with this comparison is that F1 cars have a lot more downforce (and therefore drag) than FE cars, which means that F1 cars have a relatively low top speed.
Add to this the fact that race distance is a lot shorter in FE and that they race in street circuits where time with full throttle is low and brake regen is high and suddenly Formula e is not very impressive.

- napoleon_thepig 4y agoI agree and I think that FE is a well designed entertainment product, considering the technology and budget limitations they have.
