Nick Cassidy’s contretemps with his former Super Formula sparring partner Sacha Fenestraz, a qualifying red flag debacle that ended Sam Bird’s race before it had even begun and a bizarre weekend for Cassidy’s Envision team-mate Sebastien Buemi are all covered off.

Our specialist Formula E trio also ask whether the high-speed Cape Town circuit will become a staple of the calendar or if it will go the way of Montreal and Seoul as a spectacular one-off host.

In addition to da Costa, the podcast also gets the thoughts of Buemi and Maserati team boss James Rossiter – who will have to try and pick his team up after a disastrous start to its maiden Formula E campaign.
