This street circuit is located in Brooklyn's Red Hook neighborhood at
the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal. It is the first track of any kind to host
an international motorsports event within New York City's city limits.

The iconic Statue of Liberty is visible from this track.

Pretty eventful race #1. Sebasiten Buemi was at Nurburgring. Sam Bird
won, lots of overtaking, even though it was said it is very tight/narrow
track. Lucas di Grassi made up 12pts. Felix Rosenqvist spun out and
damaged his rear wing.

Id say, it is Buemi or di Grassi now - in the title hunt.

Since the broadcast director is huge Statue of Liberty fan, it seems
like the Statue of Liberty was the 21st member of stating grid. Far too
many close-ups towards this NYC trademark :)

Some legitimate thought was given to having Formula E's New York City
round take place on Manhattan in Central Park. The idea was a
non-starter because it would have required new pavement and removing
some historic trees to set up a course, thus the move to the cruise ship
terminal in Brooklyn.

This is expected to be expanded to a doubleheader this year.
