The FIA Formula E World Championship will feature the Homestead-Miami Speedway in its upcoming season. The Season 11 calendar has been announced by the FIA and will be the biggest so far, with 17 races spread across 11 weekends. This includes six double-header events, with the first one in Monaco on May 3rd and 4th. Tokyo, which debuted this season, will also host a double-header event on May 17th and 18th, pending approval from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government.
The season will start on December 7th in São Paulo, with the venue date being changed from March. The first race of this season in Mexico will take place as the second round on January 11th. Stages three and four will happen in Saudi Arabia on Valentine’s Day weekend, although the venue has not been determined yet. The fifth stage will also be held at an undisclosed location in an unknown country, but Formula E CEO Jeff Dodds confirmed that it will be a completely new race for the sport.
The Miami E-Prix is scheduled for April 12th and will take place on a circuit inside the Homestead-Miami Speedway oval. After Monaco and Tokyo, the Shanghai E-Prix will return on May 31st and June 1st, followed by Jakarta on June 21st, making a comeback after a one-season break. The Berlin double-header has been moved to July 12th and 13th, while London is set to host its final race weekend on July 26th and 27th, concluding the season.
A notable absence in the calendar is an Italian location. Misano, which hosted a double round this season, has not been renewed due to its unpopularity among Formula E pilots and enthusiasts. When asked about it, Dodds explained that Rome, which previously hosted races, was not a long-term option due to various factors. Misano was considered as an alternative, but ultimately did not meet the criteria of being closer to a big city and having a street circuit. As a result, Formula E will continue to look for the right location in Italy for the upcoming seasons.
