2018 SAUDIA AD DIRIYAH E-PRIX

The ABB FIA Formula E Championship, the world’s first fully-electric international single-seater street racing series, heads to Ad Diriyah, Saudi Arabia for the Season 5 opener, where all 11 teams and 22 Gen2 cars will take to the track for the very first time.

Formula E delivers world-class racing to twelve cities around the world throughout the seven-month Championship season, bringing racing rivalries to city streets set against some of the most iconic skylines in the world – such as New York, Hong Kong, Paris and NOW in Saudi Arabia. Racing in the ancient surroundings of Ad Diriyah, all 22 Gen2 cars and drivers will take to the 2.495km track to battle for the first victory of the season.

Formula E redefines the very boundaries of what a sport can be through the unique fusion of entertainment, sustainability, technology, and innovation. Crowned by the race itself as the first of its kind for all-electric motorsport in the Middle East, the three-day event promises an array of family entertainment each day, with stunning live performances from global and regional headline acts, as well as interactive experiences and adventures and amazing innovations from some of the world’s leading brands in the Allianz E-village.
