The inaugural match for the first ever FIA Formula E has finally begun in Beijing, People's Republic of China. Even though the spectators literally fell silent on the silent racers because the Spark-Renault SRT_01E machines used for the maiden match are purely electric and you'll hear almost nothing coming out apart from the whooshing sounds and the tire squeals but upon witnessing a last-minute crash between Nick Heidfeld from Venturi Formula-E Team and Nicolas Prost from e.dams, the suspense really builds up to the cliffhanger worth hanging for.
On the opening match, it was Audi Sport ABT's Lucas di Grassi who won the opening match followed by Andretti Autosport's Franck Montagny and Virgin Racing's Sam Bird.
A whole new chapter in the motorsport history has finally begun and the FIA Formula E story continues in Putrajaya, Malaysia, this 22nd of November, 2014.
