The Emotional Rollercoaster of the Formula E Season 10 Finale in London
I am very much looking forward to this weekend, especially because of the title-defining nature of the two races in the English capital. Will it be the current championship leader Nick Cassidy, his Jaguar teammate Mitch Evans, Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein, or António Félix Da Costa who will take home the championship trophy? We'll find out this weekend!
But as much as I am excited to see who will come out victorious in the championship fight, there is also a deep sadness that accompanies this season's end: London marks the last two events of the season, and after that comes the feared hiatus until December. The thought of not seeing this group of drivers with their teams, teammates, and Formula E cars for several months leaves me feeling so sad, it is almost unbearable.
Formula E has become more than just a sport to me; it's a source of joy, excitement, and connection. With the drivers, teams, and other fans. Over time, these drivers have started to feel like friends. Each race weekend is a reunion, a chance to cheer them on and share their triumphs and challenges. The end of the season feels like saying goodbye, knowing it will be months before we're reunited.
What makes me even sadder, though, is the potential of not seeing some of them in the series again after this. The rumour mill is a terrifying thing, and the separation anxiety is real. I don't like it! The season coming to an end brings with it the inevitable speculation about driver changes and contract renewals. The uncertainty of not knowing whether some of my favourite drivers will return next season adds another layer of anxiety to the already present emotional farewell.
The possibility of drivers leaving the series (either voluntarily or because they are being replaced) feels like losing a great friend. It's a reminder of how precious every single moment with them is. This uncertainty makes the approaching off-season even more challenging, as I hope for the best but brace myself for the worst.
Knowing that I'll have to wait until December to see them race again feels like an eternity. The anticipation for the next season will build, but so will the wish to see my boys again. A testament to how much this sport and these drivers have come to mean to me.
As we approach the London finale, I am determined to savour every moment. I will cheer louder, watch more intensely, and celebrate this thrilling season's end with the enthusiasm it deserves. While the wait for Formula E Season 11 will be challenging, it will also provide me with the necessary time to reflect on the incredible journey of Season 10 and to look forward to the new stories that are sure to be written in Season 11.
As we get ready for the two final races in London, let's embrace the excitement and acknowledge the sadness, knowing that both are integral parts of the passion we feel for this beautiful sport.
Here's to an unforgettable finale in London. May the best driver and team
win, and may the off-season pass quickly. December can't come soon enough! We'll get through this together.
