The impressive amount of technical diversity in this years’ Formula E field has been hailed as “exciting” by NEXTEV TCR ace Oliver Turvey.
For season two, teams are allowed to develop their own powertrains and gearboxes with NEXTEV TCR one of the eight teams listed as a manufacturer.
“I think it’s great to have development in any formula,” said Turvey, “certainly to work on the development of the powertrain is something that’s quite new for me.
“I have a lot of experience in the development side, working with the McLaren Formula One team for the last six seasons, I have a lot of experience from that, and is certainly something that interests me, I have a strong engineering background after studying engineering at Cambridge University.
“I think it’s exciting times, and interesting to work on the different parameters and to try and improve everything on the car.”
It is yet to be confirmed whether the Brit will be racing for the China-based team for certain in season two, but a deal has been hailed as “practically done” by Adrian Campos, whose technical team runs the NEXTEV TCR squad.
