Inside Formula E’s Plan to Change Racing Forever | S04E04

Track Limits

About this episode

Formula E is entering a new era, and we wanted to understand what is really happening behind the scenes. For this Track Limits documentary, we flew out to Mexico City for the Formula E season opener to get an inside look at the championship, the people building it, and the future they are trying to create for motorsport. Across the weekend, we sat down with Formula E leadership, FIA representatives, drivers, and team personnel to explore how the series is growing, how the racing works, why Mexico City matters, and what makes Formula E different from every other championship on the grid. This episode goes beyond the race itself. It is about the vision behind Formula E, from fan experience and global expansion to sustainability, innovation, Gen4 technology, and the challenge of building a modern motorsport property from the ground up. Featuring conversations with Jeff Dodds, Ellie Norman, Alberto Longo, Julia Pallé, Pablo Martino, and more, this documentary gives fans a closer look at Formula E from the people shaping its future. Track Limits is a motorsport podcast and media platform covering Formula 1, Formula E, IndyCar, and the wider racing world through long-form conversations, paddock stories, race weekend coverage, and documentary-style features.
