Report

=Background=

The Trulli team did not participate in Putrajaya; they already failed to participate two weeks earlier in Beijing. This time, the team presented its Motormatica JT-01 for scrutineering, but the car did not pass all of the mandatory checks.{{cite web|url=http://www.fiaformulae.com/en/news/2015/november/trulli-to-miss-putrajaya-eprix.aspx|title=Trulli to miss Putrajaya ePrix|publisher=fiaformulae.com|accessdate=6 November 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151108215939/http://www.fiaformulae.com/en/news/2015/november/trulli-to-miss-putrajaya-eprix.aspx|archive-date=8 November 2015|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}}
