<p>Set to pave a new direction in motorsports, the FIA Formula E racing series had caught a lot of attention around the world.

<p>And since they had confirmed another venue for these speedy electric racers to blitz through, Formula E decided to run a little demonstration of what it could do in Los Angeles.

<p>The demonstrations took place during Earth Day, and piloting the Formula E car was ex-Formula 1 driver and official Formula E test driver Lucas di Grassi.</p>
