Since Formula E took centre stage for the first time in 2014, the racing series has been known to many as a place for many former Formula 1 drivers to, arguably, revive their careers.

Felipe Massa was, for a few seconds, an F1 world champion in 2008 until Lewis Hamilton spoiled the Ferrari party by finishing in fifth, a championship winning position.

Since that day in cloudy Sao Paulo, Massa has never came close to a world championship.

11 years down the road, the Brazilian is now racing in Formula E in his rookie season.

The first few races have looked to be difficult for the 37-year-old which is kind of understandable since the guy has had to switch from engine cars to electric cars.

His first two races saw him finish in 17th and 18th before a first DNF in his third race in Chile.

But the last two races have been top 10 finishes in 8th and 6th.

That's more like it Felipe!
