The engineers working at Spark Racing Technology have worked countless hours in their workshop to finish the first batch of Formula E cars, which were delivered on May 15. Guess what the teams did as soon as they arrived? Dismantling it!
Ian Phillipson, Team Manager of the Super Aguri Formula E Team caught every detail of the Spark-Renault SRT_01E on photo. Only the batteries are not included as it needs to be delivered.
The photos are unfortunately taken offline. However, we’ve understand to expect great content from the Super Aguri Formula E Team soon.
