The Stats Center generates AI-powered human-like text summarizations, a shift from the earlier process of manual editing of race summaries and driver and team performances. Stats can offer powerful insightful narratives across past 10 seasons.
• AI Companion - A simple interface that engages users and educates them about various milestones and stats across Formula E season., This new tool enables fans to prompt unique questions and access key summaries or insights.

Season 11 also marks a revolutionary chapter for Formula E with the debut of the GEN3 Evo, a leap in electric racing technology that combines blistering performance, cutting-edge sustainability, and unparalleled efficiency. The GEN3 Evo sets a new benchmark as the fastest-accelerating FIA single-seater, rocketing from 0-60 mph in an astonishing 1.82 seconds—30% quicker than current Formula 1 cars—underscoring Formula E's unwavering commitment to driving innovation while prioritizing environmental responsibility.
