Kiwi Nick Cassidy and his Citroën Racing Formula E Team have successfully completed their first official FIA Formula E pre-season testing at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia this week, marking a significant milestone as the French marque embarks on its debut campaign in the all-electric single-seater world championship.
“That’s four days of testing here in Valencia done, and it’s been a really positive first experience with my new team,” commented Cassidy. “I’m happy with how it’s gone, it feels like we’ve made solid progress.
“We’re ambitious and always pushing for more performance, but for our first official test together, it’s been a strong start. Of course, we’d love a bit more time before São Paulo, but I’m confident we’ll be in good shape. It’s my first time working with this group, and we’re still learning each other’s ways, but I believe we’ll be in a good place for the start of the season.”
Across an intensive and productive week of running, the team’s drivers completed a total of 621 laps, over 2 096 kms, gathering crucial performance data and continuing the development of Citroën’s Formula E challenger. The testing programme focused on energy management, race simulations, and systems validation, laying a strong foundation ahead of the season opener in São Paulo on December 6th.
