And recently, the official Twitter page of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship posted a video to hype up the fans for the coming season.

The video features a driver who is leading the race but his car gets wrecked. Now this man is someone with the principles of “No Turning Back.” (The message at the end of the video)

So anyway, someone of this mindset, if he is unable to finish a race, what does he do?

Well, he turns into a Tom Cruise-like character and ‘races against time’ across buildings, streets, rooftops, and alleys in order to make it to the finish line. And he does make it to the finish line, on foot, in the most dramatic way possible.

A great video to hype up the fans, it has to be said.

Hopefully, we will be here in the months of December 2022 and March of 2023.”
