New York City ePrix?[edit]
Formula E calls the ePrix "New York City ePrix" [1]. Should we move the article accordingly? Wild8oar (talk) 06:22, 20 July 2017 (UTC)
- @Wild8oar: I agree. This name for the event is also used in the wider media. MWright96 (talk) 12:26, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

I'll take a look at this one, will post review soon. Kosack (talk) 20:50, 30 April 2018 (UTC)
Lead[edit]
- "a two-day crowd of 20,000 people", just to clarify is this referring to the combined crowd for both days?
- "There were the ninth and tenth races of the 2016–17 Formula E season", should it be they rather than there?
- Is there a link that can be added for electrical energy? Seems like a term that could need clarifying for the uninitiated.
- "until a safety car was necessitated for the Heidfeld's stricken car", needs rewording slightly I think. Either "for Heidfeld's stricken car" , "the stricken Heidfeld's car" or another alternative.
- "Mahindra were still in third place", Mahindra remained in third place perhaps?
Preparations[edit]
- "a Central Park track would have required demolishing trees", can you demolish a tree?
Race One[edit]
Practice and qualifying[edit]
- "The damage however was not severe enough and was repaired", enough is a bit out of place here. It can be removed or expanded on e.g. "severe enough to rule him out"
- "Engel was affected a problem", should that be affected by a problem?
Race[edit]
- "hairpins where multiple cars made contact and emerged from the melee without bodywork damage", should that be but emerged...?
- "while Prost lost nine places over the same distance because of his car was damaged.", sentence needs tweaking, I'm guessing the of shouldn't be there?
- "Bird took the lead from Abt by aggressively turning to the inside of Abt at the turn five hairpin", possible repetition of Abt could replace the second use with him I think.
Race two[edit]
Practice and qualifying[edit]
Race[edit]
- "After starting ninth, Di Grassi", I notice di Grassi is normally used apart from this mention which uses a capital letter in the second paragraph?
External links[edit]
- Is this race set to be repeated? Otherwise the bottom navbox seems a bit unnecessary if there is no other race before or after.
An extremely detailed and well written article. Very minor points to address. On hold for now. Kosack (talk) 18:29, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
