Mahindra Racing are looking at ending the inaugural Formula E season on a high note as the Indian team has struggled to make an impact in this year’s championship.

The team who is managed by Dilbagh Gill will become a manufacturer next season, where they hope to put their knowledge of electric cars to the test, as they aim to build a car that will promote the team to the front of the grid.

Mahindra left Moscow disappointed once again as both cars failed to score points in the last three races. Bruno Senna scored the team’s last points scoring position with a fifth place finish in Long Beach.

Speaking after the Moscow ePrix, Team Principal Dilbagh Gill was disappointed that his team failed to score any points in Moscow.

“It was a shame to come away from the race without any points considering that this morning we felt confident and were pleased with our pace. We were off the pace in qualifying and with street circuits we all know how important your qualifying positions are. We gained a few positions and Chandhok was strong in his 13th place finish, but it wasn’t the weekend we had hoped for here in Moscow.”

Karun Chandhok was happy with how the team performed in the morning practice sessions but was confused about why the car did not pick up any pace in qualifying.

“The day started quite well for us and in Free Practice two especially I was really happy with how the car felt – it was nice to drive. However in qualifying as the track had more rubber down we seemed to struggle and others found more pace than we did.”

“The track was tricky and we bottomed out so we didn’t have the pace in qualifying and it’s qualifying where everything matters. The race pace was good but from there, there’s very little you can achieve. We have another couple of races in London to look forward to where we aim to improve,” said Karun Chandhok.

Bruno Senna had a difficult race as he had spin and lost his rear wing which destroyed his race, but the Mahindra driver felt that his team has good race pace, but the problem is that everybody around them has good race pace as well. This means that overtaking becomes very difficult in the races.

“We started at the back and we were good for pace, but there’s a lot of others around you in that area. We decided to go for a long first stint and a shorter second one which was working really well for us but unfortunately with a few laps to go in the stint I hit the wall. These things happen and I had to pit ahead of schedule. This compromised my second stint and the race was gone from there really. We made some positive steps this weekend and look to continue this for the final two races,” said Bruno Senna.
