Pope Francis is not trading his blue sedan or the Popemobile, but he did stop on the way to his April 11, 2018, general audience to bless the new Formula E electric racing car by Porsche.
The Formula E racing series was announced in 2011 and held its first event in 2014 in Beijing. Only electric-powered cars are allowed.
