Now, as the all-electric championship heads to Diriyah in Saudi Arabia for a double-header, it’s very quickly going to become crunch time: by Monday, 19 per cent of the season is already over and done with, almost a fifth of the points on offer for the year already handed out. Even there, though, amid frustration and near-misses, is a sign of the possibility this year: Guenther’s energy management is largely what saw him surge up four places, with the new car far more efficient and team tactics built around taking advantage of that. When they land just outside of Riyadh, however, there’s another stat which rolls back into last season worth bearing in mind: Only once in 2022 did the same driver or team win two Formula E races in succession. The human rights record of Saudi Arabia has been criticised by everyone of note; as recently as last week Amnesty International labelled an exhibition match between Messi’s club PSG and Cristiano Ronaldo - playing for a Saudi All-Star team - as “sportswashing efforts still operating at full throttle”.
