The more things change...

It's been a tight three-week turnaround but we did it - all 120 pages of it!

Such is the intersecting, serpentine beast that is the current motor sport calendar, we literally couldn't cram everything in on four-wheels, but in this edition of eRacing, we've managed to cover all the action from the final Formula E round at Battersea Park, plus canvas some paddock opinion from fans, media and a few drivers who may be on the grid next year.

With the announcement of the four manufacturers to be granted 2017 LMP2 chassis licences, all eyes were on Austria last weekend for the Red Bull Ring 4 Hours - Jota Sport finally breaking their duck to record their first ELMS win of 2015.

On this note, Stefan Ruitenberg has cast his eye over some of the innovation that has graced the stop-start category over the years, plus brought us up to date with the current tech developments in LMP1.

While juggling her BTCC duties, Gemma Hatton not only found time to panel the The IMechE’s ‘Women in Motorsport’ evening alongside Leena Gade and Bernadette Collins, but graciously represented eRacing at the International Forum of Advanced Automotive Aerodynamics - yes its a mouthful! In this edition, Gemma investigates why more and more wind tunnels are being built despite forecasts of their extinction a decade ago.

By the time you get through it all we should be back - in five weeks time to review what promises to be a titanic WEC round from the Nurburgring!
