Formula E Best Sector Scoreboard
This scoreboard is the same than the Best Sector Scoreboard but you can select the Power Mode to have only 250kW times or only 220kW times.
Formula E Remaining Time Scoreboard
This scoreboard displays the Remaining Time for the leader in the race until the end of the 45 minutes + the extra time. After 40 minutes, the extra time cannot be increased so the first two columns (Time Remaining and Time Remaining With Extra Time) will display the same values.
