Along with the final race of the F1 season, this weekend also sees the next Formula E race taking place in Malaysia. So, for anyone who watched the first race, what did you think of it, and will you be watching this weekend? I did watch the first one and while it wasn't the most interesting of races (apart from the spectacular crash at the end), I'll probably give it another shot. Hopefully the lack of excitement was nothing to do with it being a street circuit, since I believe every race is a street circuit, and although I can understand it from a safety point, I wasn't a fan of the whole enforced delay thing when changing cars. I was ok with Formula E, but more for the novelty side as opposed to the competition, as you said aside from the Heidfeld crash it was admittedly dull but it was unfortunately exactly what the series needed for the sake of getting people intrigued. I do agree though that the circuit didn't lend itself well to racing. The one thing that irritated me most of all though was the broadcasting side of it, the techno music in the background was distracting and say what you want about the chase I would much rather have it then the gimmicky fan boost concept.

Congratulation Lewis Hamilton on your 2nd Formula 1 title Well earned and thank you for doing it before the final corner this time Full credit to Rosberg to, sadly his car pretty much screwed up today, but he never let Lewis rest all season, A driver I would have no qualms seeing as champion one day. And thank god the stupid Double points system didn't come into play

A shame for Rosberg but even if his car didn't have the problems I don't think it would have changed the outcome, especially with the start that Hamilton had.
Credit to Rosberg for how he handled things after the race.
Hope to see Williams continue with their good form next year.

Maybe Lotus would have done better if they weren't doing stuff like this?
