Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Nico Rosberg and Carlos Sainz Sr headline as team owners. American motorsport powerhouses Chip Ganassi and Andretti have pitched in too. In the cockpits, the cream of talent from the rallycross world has risen to the top (as you would expect in an offroad division), while a generation of relatively unknown female racers are making the most of this new platform to establish themselves on a global stage. The venues are exotic and the 4x4s, if still troublingly far from bulletproof, have the power and speed to create a decent spectacle. Yes, there’s plenty to like about Extreme E.
