Formula E Announces 16-Race Schedule

Formula E and the FIA have published the provisional calendar for the 2021–2022 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, featuring three new locations as part of a record 16-race season spanning 12 cities across four continents.

Getting underway in late January, the season opener will be a night race in Diriyah following the success of last season’s inaugural night race. The grid will then head to Mexico City before visiting the first of three new cities with South Africa’s Cape Town—returning single-seater FIA World Championship racing to the country for the first time since the 1993 South African Grand Prix.

China then returns to the calendar in March 2022 before events in Rome and Monaco, with the race in the Principality moving from a biannual to an annual event.

Berlin, the only city to have featured in every season, takes its familiar place on the calendar in May, followed shortly after by the second new venue with Vancouver.

Racing then heads to New York for a series of doubleheaders beginning with the New York City E-Prix, before two races at London’s ExCeL and a climatic doubleheader season-finale in Seoul utilizing a circuit incorporating the Olympic Stadium.

After two consecutive years of absence due to the global pandemic, Formula E plans a return to Paris in 2023 for the arrival of Formula E’s Gen3 cars. In addition, the Paris E-Prix will move to a biannual event format, adapted to provide a new balance for the championship’s calendar.
