A new destination for all-electric racing as the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is back in the USA. Portland, Oregon becomes the fourth city in the United States to host a race - this time it's the fast and flowing Portland International Raceway in Portland, USA.
It's not an atypical Formula E circuit and energy management will be crucial as drivers won't have the usual stop-and-go 90 degree corners to regen and harvest energy.
As we charge right into the business end of the season a victory for one of the top four could be vital for any championship hopes.
Looking back across the seasons we've witnessed two drivers go on to lift the title trophy after claiming victory in the States - will history repeat itself in Season 9?

For the win
Heading into Jakarta it looked like the championship fight was starting to swing away from Pascal Wehrlein and TAG Heuer Porsche, but the German drove a perfectly calculated drive to return to the top step in the Saturday race. It was a win in a style we've come to expect from Wehrlein in Season 9, unfazed and leading the energy train and keeping his challengers at bay.
We've seen that the Porsche powertrain has been strong no matter where we go, and with another fast and flowing stop on the calendar Portland could prove to be another location where they'll come out on top.
But the factory team may want to keep an eye placed firmly on their nearest rivals and customer-team Avalanche Andretti, and in particular Jake Dennis.
The Brit is only one point behind Wehrlein, and is currently on a four-podium streak with an unmatched total of seven this season - all of his point-scoring finishes have come with silverware so it really has been rostum-or-bust for Dennis.
This consistency must be troubling the factory team, and the Andretti squad will no doubt love to hear the star-bangled banner blare out on the podium after a victory on Saturday to leaving home soil with the championship lead with only four rounds left to go.
Podium potentials
Maserati MSG Racing entered the chat in a very commanding way in Jakarta, Maximilian Guenther made it a clean sweep by topping the timesheets in every session before a stunning drive to victory on the Sunday race, and the Monegasque based team will be looking to ride on that momentum again in the USA.
Guenther ran a tactical masterpiece of a race in the hot, sitting back and building resources before expending that energy with a burst of laps at the right time, and opening up a gap that couldn't be closed. It might be tricky to replicate that run this weekend mind you, as it's likely we'll see a return to the peloton style of racing
It was a blip that he was expecting, as Nick Cassidy's run of form came to a halt in Jakarta last time out, losing the championship lead after dropping points for only the second time this season - and consistency is key when it comes to Formula E.
A return to US soil will bring positive memories for the Envision Racing driver, he scored his first victory in New York City last season. After his second non-score the New Zealander went on to take points in seven races in a row, five of which were podium wins including two victories on the bounce.
One lap pace
When it comes to the bonus point for the TAG Heuer Fastest Lap, there's only one driver to have clocked the top time in the race. Andretti's Dennis has clocked the fastest lap the most with four from 11 races.
By virtue of his unstoppable qualifying performance in Jakarta, Guenther has joined Sebastien Buemi (Envision Racing) and Jake Hughes (NEOM McLaren) with nine wins in the Duels, as the trio also share the most finals appearances (three) and two pole positions apiece.
When it comes to the most appearances in the Duels, that honour sits with Jaguar TCS Racing's Mitch Evans, as the New Zealander made his eighth visit to the knockout stages in Jakarta.
It's going to be a fast race around the Portland International Raceway, but the victory is going to need a calculated drive. Who will come out on top? Start your predictions now in the Formula E app.
