The first was announced a few days ago, it is the arrival of Jean-Eric Vergne in Formula E for this Argentine round. The Frenchman was supposed to team up with Franck Montagny, but the F1 commentator on Canal+ is ill, and the American team has decided to call upon Matthew Brabham &#8211; who had replaced Charles Pic at Putrajaya &#8211; to support Vergne.<\/p>\n<p>On the Japanese team Amlin Aguri&#8217;s side, Katherine Legge will be absent for the third round of Formula E due to other commitments. The British driver will be replaced by Salvador Duran, a Mexican driver who has competed in A1 GP, Formula Renault 3.5, and British F3.<\/p>\n<p><b>The circuit<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The circuit &#8211; 2.8 km long, composed of 20 turns &#8211; winds through the streets of the &#8220;Saint Tropez&#8221; of Uruguay, as Punta del Este is sometimes called. It runs counterclockwise and features a mix of fast and slow turns &#8211; including a hairpin at turn 19 and two right-angle turns at curves 8 and 9. There are also three long straights, which should make it a fairly fast track.<\/p>\n<div style=\"float:center;padding-right:15px;padding-bottom:10px\"><a href=\"\/images\/photo\/article\/f12014\/c-fia-formulae-punta-del-este-trace-circuit.jpg\" rel=\"prettyPhoto&lt;div id=&#039;gallery-1&#039; class=&#039;gallery galleryid-14003 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail&#039;&gt;&lt;figure class=&#039;gallery-item&#039;&gt;\n\t\t\t&lt;div class=&#039;gallery-icon landscape&#039;&gt;\n\t\t\t\t&lt;a href=&#039;https:\/\/www.casinoenligne.uk.com\/en\/formula-e\/news\/19228-formula-e-punta-del-este-eprix-circuit-presentation-tv-schedule\/attachment\/1500_edito_09dtwwmto_ioezudqu55gw9t5qbephcmlsu_nvyngssfyzfsnijhjfnxal1ozxb4s_nd6hou0yo1be1aqspamjgbgkqs&#039;&gt;&lt;img width=&quot;150&quot; height=&quot;150&quot; src=&quot;https:\/\/www.casinoenligne.uk.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/12\/1500_edito_09DTWWmtO_ioezUDqU55gw9T5qbePhCmLSU_NvyngSSfyzfsNIJHJfnXAL1oZXB4S_ND6hou0yO1BE1aQspAMJgBgKQs-150x150.webp&quot; class=&quot;attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; srcset=&quot;https:\/\/www.casinoenligne.uk.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/12\/1500_edito_09DTWWmtO_ioezUDqU55gw9T5qbePhCmLSU_NvyngSSfyzfsNIJHJfnXAL1oZXB4S_ND6hou0yO1BE1aQspAMJgBgKQs-150x150.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.casinoenligne.uk.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2014\/12\/1500_edito_09DTWWmtO_ioezUDqU55gw9T5qbePhCmLSU_NvyngSSfyzfsNIJHJfnXAL1oZXB4S_ND6hou0yO1BE1aQspAMJgBgKQs-148x148.webp 148w&quot; sizes=&quot;(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px&quot; \/&gt;&lt;\/a&gt;\n\t\t\t&lt;\/div&gt;&lt;\/figure&gt;\n\t\t&lt;\/div&gt;\n\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/images\/photo\/article\/f12014\/c-fia-formulae-punta-del-este-trace-circuit.jpg\" alt=\"Circuit de Punta del Este, Formule E\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><b>The opinion of\u2026 Oriol Servia (Dragon Racing)<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u00ab The layout reminds me a lot of Surfers Paradise [an Australian track in the city of the same name, editor&#8217;s note]. Apart from the location near the beach, the way the track is designed is also similar, a bit like a &#8216;mini Surfers Paradise&#8217;. I like it because it worked well for me as I once got pole position there! At turns 3 and 4, there&#8217;s a fast chicane that should be taken flat out. Then we have a second chicane. [&#8230;] There&#8217;s a hairpin at turns 8 and 9, which is like a corner with two apexes. There will be a lot of time to lose or gain here. It&#8217;s also a heavy braking zone, which could be good for energy recovery. \u00bb<\/p>\n<p><b>The TV program<\/b><\/p>\n<p>In France, the Canal+ group has acquired the rights for the first three seasons of Formula E.
