Sebastien Buemi reveals what he likes about Berlin E-Prix
Sebastien Buemi recently spoke about managing three racing formats at one time. When asked if Formula E remains his priority, the Envision Racing driver said, “Of course, with WEC, Red Bull and Formula E, to put it all together is not that simple. So I think a lot of my future will depend on, obviously, performance in general, as you have to be good, but also the calendars, as usual.”Buemi also opened up on how the Pit Boost feature makes the two races at the Berlin double-header stand apart from each other. He explained in a chat with FormulaE.com, “With Pit Boost, I usually like those races. The fact that there is only one Attack Mode, even if it’s a bit longer at six minutes, means you need to qualify quite well because the Pit Boost races usually have more energy and less saving. The fact that there is only one Attack Mode also makes it more important to qualify well.”“And then, obviously, the second race, being more like a traditional race, usually allows you, even if you have a great strategy, to not have to be that fast. Whereas in the first race, you’ve got to have some proper speed, in my opinion,” he added about the Round 8 race.
