Formula E returns to Saudi Arabia with new circuit
The race will take place in Diriyah for two days.
The Fast and the Furious franchise has cultivated a generation of petrolheads in Saudi Arabia, so it is no surprise that the Kingdom has a passion for motorsports. The Formula 1 STC Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Jeddah has captured the hearts of Saudi residents, and now, Formula E is set to make its much-anticipated return.
Formula E has unveiled the calendar for Season 11 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, and Diriyah, located on the outskirts of Riyadh, is included. Scheduled for 14 and 15 February 2025, this event marks the seventh edition of the Diriyah E-Prix in the Kingdom, promising two days filled with high-octane excitement.
Formula E is embarking on its most extensive season yet, featuring a 17-race calendar across 11 venues worldwide. The championship will commence on 7 December in Sao Paulo, followed by races in Mexico City, before arriving at the new circuit in Diriyah. After its stint in the Kingdom, the tournament will continue in Miami, Monaco, Tokyo, Jakarta, and Berlin, concluding the season in London.
What makes this season even more electrifying is the debut of the GEN3 EVO race car, capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 mph in 1.82 seconds – a staggering 36 per cent faster than its predecessor.
The world’s first all-electric FIA World Championship, Formula E stands at the forefront of sustainable innovation. So buckle up and prepare for an electrifying season in Saudi Arabia and beyond.
Tickets to the race will be available soon.
