Jean-Eric Vergne has renewed calls for FormulaE to switch to slicks, having been unimpressed by the lack of grip in Hankook's 'concrete' new tyres in the mexicocityeprix. ⬇️

Two-time Formula E champion Vergne, who will make his 100th race start in the category this weekend at the Diriyah round, has been a frequent critic of the all-weather tyre construction used in the electric championship.

Asked by Autosport if he felt that he would get used to the new tyres, the DS Penske driver replied:"Oh, never. "I would want slick tyres with a 70% increase of grip.
