The main problem with formula e (and motorsport in general) is that theyre trying to reach to the 'eco people'. Firstly, they seem to estimate it to be far greater amount of people than it really is, and secondly, they're still extremely unlikely to be interested in cars racing round a city centre.

I think more than trying to reach eco-people is just evolution, big fat powerful engines are not seen anymore in any production cars, not even in Ferrari (new California is V8 turbo, Laferrari has some kinetic recovery system I believe).
Mercedes and Renault were clear that if engines haven't changed they would have gone out of F1 so a change in the power unit was needed, hydrogen engines or other variables are not strong in the market (were the manufacturers make their money) that leaves only one option and that is to develop racing around the most popular tecnology in the market which right know is electricity.
And this directly goes to the why of Formula E, which to my sight is a test series to see how people react to these type of engines, power units who will disappear the feeling of danger combustible ones had and of course will eliminate the intimidating sound combustible engines had.
Getting tired of your shit Jensen. Magnusen outperformed him in his debut race and Jensen has the nerve to put him under the bus like he did to Perez. Accept you are generic and won a title by default or retire. He seems to hate new up & coming drivers.
You don't close a 55 point gap with a car that finished a minute behind the leader at the last race.
To be fair, without some immature mistakes in 09, Brawn's early-season advantage could have gone wrong as RBR had caught his team. I can see a similar situation happening this season.

But Brawn weren't winning races by over half a lap, IIRC it was rarely more than 10 seconds the margin of victory and they were getting frequently outqualified. Mercedes' dominance is not comparable to Brawn, the advantage is much bigger. The gap will take longer to close and you have to look that not only is the gap between Merc and RBR big but also RBR to the next best team. So even if RBR do catch up they will find it hard to recover the gap.
Overstatement indeed everyone is getting linked with Ferrari , I remember reading a week or two back about Ross Brawn because he visited there base while on holiday in italy
