What did you think of the new FIA Extreme E opening round that took place in the Saudi desert over the Easter weekend?
It reminded me of my son’s radio controlled toy car he got for Christmas (over 20 years ago). At that time, it was like no other RC toy. It had a wide body, big go-anywhere tyres and nothing got in its way. What’s more, it sounded just like these Extreme E cars.
This week on Podcast Saturday, the team at Dirtfish discuss the pros and cons of the new category and literally take it apart! The marketing, reliability, sustainability, politics, drivers, the racing format, potential sexism occurring within the category, the car, its manufacturer, the TV coverage and the commentary.
The next stop for Extreme E is Senegal in May. Stay tuned!
