Altmer is best for a magicka build atm.
Breton and Dunmer are still way better than the rest though.
Well, as far as the race influences your stats, it does make a difference, but you can make all races work.

I like using high elves for my pvp sorcs can usually own most people of same level in a 1v1 and can usually take on two or even three lower levels and win

This.

Also choose a race based on the most recent PTS notes regarding the racials. Some people make a playstyle based around certain racials. You can't go wrong with any of the races Torelax mentioned. My magicka Sorc has been Dunmer since beta and all I did with him is PvP. I don't regret it at all. As long as you have bonus Magicka it's fine, even if you didn't, say you went Nord, you still have a 6% damage reduction. Everything has something it can bring to the table... unless you make a cat, cat's are ass holes (especially irl).
