Background

After the previous race in Buenos Aires, four driver changes took place. The first was Loïc Duval, replacing Oriol Servià at Dragon.[3] The second was Scott Speed, replacing Marco Andretti at Andretti.[4] Speed was the fourth driver in five races to drive the second car for Andretti. The third was Charles Pic returning to the series with China Racing, replacing Ho-Pin Tung.[5] Pic had previously competed for Andretti in the first round in Beijing. Finally, Vitantonio Liuzzi replaced Michela Cerruti at Trulli GP.[6]

Salvador Durán, Jean-Éric Vergne, and Bruno Senna were voted to receive the FanBoost, giving an extra 30 kWh for five seconds per car.[7]
