Putrajaya will host the second round of the Formula E championship after a 70 day wait since round one in China. The track is 2.5km long and has twelve turns with the race expected to have 31 laps.

From round one we have learnt that E. Dams might not be the team to beat this season. Despite the French teams dominance during pre season testing in Donnington, Venturi Mahindra and Andretti Autosport showed that they are teams looking to go out and win from the start.

The Venturi car had great race pace in the hands of Nick Heidfeld and was closing in on Nico Prost in the closing stages of the race and probably would of won the race if the two drivers did not collide in the final corner.

Mahindra also showed that they have great one lap pace during practice and qualifying. Bruno Senna was constantly setting purple sector times in the final practice session and was looking quick in qualifying until a technical problem stopped Senna from posting a time. However, Chandhok did provide some consistent race pace to bring the car home in fifth place for the Indian team.

Andretti Autosport the leaders in the constructors championship can also be a real threat to E. Dams this weekend as Franck Montagny was able to put in some very quick times without putting to much strain on his battery life. Charles Pic also drove a very consistent race with both cars finishing second and fourth.

We also cannot forget our race winners from China Audi Sport ABT. Through pre season they looked like E. Dams main threat going into round one as Lucas Di Grassi was the only other driver apart from Sebastian Buemi to end a day quickest in pre season testing. Di Grassi took great fortune from the accident between Prost and Heidfeld to win the race but his and Daniel Abt’s race pace was still causing the French teams some problems.

Overtaking is a real possibility on this track with its long straights which will allow drivers to get a good slipstream and thus creating a better opportunity for overtaking on the inside.

We could see overtaking at turn 1, turn 3, turn 5 maybe turn 7 if a driver leaves the door open and turn 10 which is a hairpin. It is set to be an amazing race as we have a number of teams that could easily be challenging for a race victory and the track could be one of the best overtaking circuits on the calendar.
