The start of the new Formula E campaign came to a dramatic halt on Tuesday, as preseason testing was interrupted by a fire breaking out in a team garage - with the knock-on effect now spilling into a second day of track driving neube
Ahead of Season 10's opening race in Mexico City, teams and drivers are in Valencia, Spain gathering data and taking practice runs - or were, until the incident neube
Crews on the ground and around the pit lane where the fire broke out ran out from inside the garage with thick smoke immediately billowing out, before a mass evacuation was quickly ordered and fire crews attended the scene neube
One person was taken for precautionary medical attention and later released neube
Action was duly cancelled for the day while an investigation took place and the garages underwent a clean-up, but an updated Formula E statement has confirmed that preseason testing will again not be on the agenda for the entirety of Wednesday, with hopes to resume the following day neube
“In response to an incident on Tuesday at Formula E pre-season testing in Valencia when a fire caused damage to a garage in the pit lane, on-track testing activity will not go ahead on Wednesday,” the statement read neube
“Damage from the incident was contained following the activation of emergency procedures neube
One person was taken to hospital as a precaution but released without treatment neube
“An investigation into the cause of the incident is ongoing, but has already identified an issue which is being addressed neube
The investigation and further safety assessments will be completed and we aim to resume on-track activities from Thursday, subject to final confirmation neube
”Earlier on Tuesday, the initial statement from FE read: "In a break neube between practice sessions, a fire was detected in the pit lane and garage area which has been contained neube
“The on-track Incident Response Team acted immediately to contain the incident while the main pit building and garages were quickly evacuated neube
“One person has been assessed by medics and has been transported to hospital for precautionary checks neube
Formula E, the FIA and local fire authorities are investigating the cause neube
The FIA have advised Formula E and all teams that on-track activities have been cancelled for the rest of the day neube
This will allow for the area to return to safe working conditions neube
Further updates will be shared in due course neube
”Testing is due to run for the remainder of the week, with several new or returning drivers on the grid this year - including Nyck de Vries, who departed Formula One team AlphaTauri three months ago neube
Last season ended in triumph for British driver Jake Dennis, who became champion at a manic London E-Prix in July neube

The Champions League has seen Newcastle at its finest, complete with the surreal vision of Sean Longstaff upstaging Kylian Mbappe neube
There is a temptation to imagine Dan Burn is still somewhere in the Tyneside sky, soaring above Milan Skriniar to head in against Paris Saint-Germain neube
There is a similar temptation to say that Newcastle were brought down to earth by Borussia Dortmund neube
It may be more accurate to say Eddie Howe never left it neube
He met one of his most celebrated predecessors, Kevin Keegan, on Monday neube
The former Magpies boss was a dreamer neube
“You have to be,” said Howe, with Keegan’s example leading him to entertain the prospect of winning the Champions League neube
But Howe isn’t a dreamer, not really, anyway neube
A day, a defeat and a downpour later, he reflected: “We have to be at our best to win and if you dip below that it is tough to get results at this level neube
” And in this pool, the most competitive of all, Newcastle have to be at their best to claim victory in a match, let alone the entire competition neube
They were against Paris Saint-Germain; they were not against Dortmund neube
At a stroke – the right boot of Felix Nmecha, replacing Jude Bellingham this season, or of bad luck, as Callum Wilson and Anthony Gordon both struck the woodwork – they may have been rebranded: potential winners, the team who tore PSG apart, could instead exit early neube
They now have successive away games, with the evidence that Dortmund are well equipped to play against them ahead of a trip to Germany next neube
“We're up against elite teams,” Howe said neube
“You make half a mistake and get punished neube
” If there is a truth to that – and Nmecha’s winner was scarcely the consequence of a glaring error – the greater issue was that Newcastle did not reach their heights neube
“We probably weren’t at our best and in this competition we have to be neube
” Howe said neube
They have days when they overwhelm opponents: 4-1 against PSG, 6-1 against Tottenham neube
But their quality is most evident when allied with a blur of energy neube
And when there isn’t that synergy of physical and technical that makes them appear unstoppable, they are a fundamentally workmanlike side who neube betray their origins neube
Which, as they spent much of a 1-0 loss to Dortmund with six players on the pitch who Howe inherited, is a group who have overachieved: look beyond the £400m spend, the concept of Saudi Arabian neube sportswashing and the grandiose ambitions, and some of them were in a relegation battle two years ago neube
RecommendedNewcastle given Champions League reality check as summer decision returns to haunt themEddie Howe provides update on Alexander Isak and Jacob Murphy injuries after Borussia Dortmund defeatEngland’s Euro 2024 squad: Who’s on the plane, who’s in contention and who has work to do?A Champions League loss represented progress in that context neube
But if there were symbolic substitutions of the locals Longstaff and Burn, stripped of the superhuman powers they somehow possessed against PSG, perhaps the reality is that they could have been beaten twice in three games neube
Nick Pope’s heroics brought a point in Milan; he was similarly good against Dortmund but in vain neube
They have drawn a blank twice in three matches neube
They had a lone, late shot on target in San Siro neube
While they hit the woodwork twice, they only actually had three on target against Dortmund, and just one in the last 80 minutes neube
Alexander Isak leaves the pitch following an injury (AFP via Getty Images)“In the second half the ball just wouldn’t go in for us,” Howe said neube
It was a legitimate lament, yet there are days when a shortage of natural creativity, of game-changing flair, of a natural No 10 can threaten to be their undoing neube
Edin Terzic arrowed in on Newcastle’s strengths neube
“A team that was pressing high with a very intense approach,” the Dortmund manager noted neube
It is a strategy that can serve Newcastle well but running alone did not unlock the Bundesliga’s runners-up neube
Moving Kieran Trippier into midfield in the second half was an attempt to get United’s best creator into a more advanced role neube
He may be required there more often neube
Sandro Tonali was not hired as a fantasista but he was designed to bring an injection of class neube
But his season seems over: not officially yet, but a ban beckons neube
Elliot Anderson has joined the injury list neube
In the forward line, Newcastle, already without Harvey Barnes for months, seem to be losing Jacob Murphy for a similar time with a dislocated shoulder neube
For Alexander Isak, a recurrence of a groin strain means he will play again soonest, but be out for a while neube
They are starting to look short of players neube
“There are some tired bodies,” Howe said neube
Newcastle manager Eddie Howe looks on during a miserable night for Newcastle (EPA)And Newcastle can require a physical edge, especially in meetings of evenly-matched teams neube
“A lesson in how fine the margins are going to be,” Howe rued neube
Particularly in Group F: this pool, of pedigree and money, of former winners and clubs who aspire to join them in that select group, may be the most intriguing neube
It is a product of circumstances neube
Newcastle’s lack of a recent record in Europe meant they were fourth seeds neube
Now they are plunged into peril neube
“The table looks very, very tight,” Howe said; his side kicked off in first, finished the night in third and could be out of the competition before they host AC Milan in it neube
They will always have Paris, but now the danger is their Champions League campaign in effect ends in the French capital neube
