Rounds 6 and 7 of Season 11 will see the GEN3 Evo machines hit the iconic Monte-Carlo circuit for the first time.
All eyes will be on championship leader Oliver Rowland (Nissan Formula E Team, 69 points) as he seeks to regain momentum after a difficult Miami outing. Hot on his heels are the formidable TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team drivers: reigning FIA Drivers’ World Champion Pascal Wehrlein and teammate António Félix da Costa, both riding high after a spectacular double-podium performance in Miami.
The iconic Monaco E-Prix, hosted in the world’s most revered motorsport location, continues as a stand-out event in the GEN3 Evo era. Drivers in the Formula E Championship will go wheel-to-wheel on the iconic track twice this weekend, for a double-header event - the first time the Principality has ever hosted two separate back-to-back races for an FIA championship.
For Season 11, the classic circuit around the Principality’s historic harbourfront remains unchanged, preserving its nearly century-old layout first designed in 1929.
Spanning 19 turns and stretching across 3.337 kilometres, the circuit promises another exhilarating showcase of all-electric racing as cars navigate the renowned landmarks of Mirabeau, the esteemed Casino Square, and the famed Monaco tunnel. Following this iconic route, drivers will encounter the Nouvelle chicane before gracefully gliding along the historic harbourfront.
Rounds 6 & 7 of the Monaco E-Prix starts at 15:05 local time on 3rd and 4th May.
