This wasn't a Formula 1 electric car, they don't exists. Formula 1 cars use hybrid engines. This was an electric rallycross car.

the only links are the FIA and the fact that Sebastien Loeb had been one of the previous drivers, I guess.

maybe automated-summary error?

Formula E would be electric only, right?

WRC team called “Special ONE Racing.”

Not Formula 1 or Formula E.

“Lydden Hill Race Circuit fire started in battery of Special ONE team electric car while charging, say FIA World Rallycross Championship officials” is the actual title. Yes, it needs shortening, but it's important for it to remain accurate while shortening.

Also normal fuel cars catch fire, especially when refueling, fuel is highly inflammable. I don’t understand why this hype on the (rare) EVs that catch fire when in charge.
