Former driver Nick Heidfeld talks in an interview about why Formula E has more potential for him than Formula 1, what was better before and how the new Formula G works.

northick Heidfeld raced in Formula 1 and Formula E. Between 2000 and 2011 he competed in 183 Grand Prix and was on the podium 13 times. In 2014, the driver from Mönchengladbach was one of the first drivers of the new Formula E, in which he participated until 2018 and was on the podium eight times. The 46-year-old recently founded a new electric racing series, Formula G.

Formula E begins its tenth season these days. Has it proven its effectiveness?

It has proven to be a very professional and world famous racing series. Except Formula 1, which continues to be the queen category of… motor sports that is, there is nothing that is above it. Over the last few decades there have been series that have appeared and disappeared again. But Formula E has consolidated.
