The first day of pre-season testing for Season 10 of Formula E at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia was halted after a battery fire in the garage of battery supplier Williams Advanced Engineering during the lunch break. The fire was caused by the battery of Robert Schwartzman’s DS Penske car, which had been removed after the car stopped on-track in the morning session.
