Formula E reveals new race in Tokyo for landmark 10th season

In the run-up to the inaugural Portland E-Prix, the FIA Formula E World Championship has unveiled its schedule for its upcoming 2023/24 season, announcing a landmark new race in Tokyo, Japan.

Featuring 17 races, the season promises to be Formula E’s longest and most diverse campaign to date as the series visits 13 locations across the globe.

The season, which marks a 10-year milestone for motorsport’s most unpredictable category, will start on 13 January 2024 at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City.

It will continue with a double-header event in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia before staging races on 10 and 24 February in two locations yet to be decided.

São Paulo, which made a successful debut in the 2023 season, returns to the calendar on 16 March.

The Tokyo E-Prix on 30 March will mark Formula E’s first competitive outing in Japan to bring high-octane racing to one of the most iconic cities in the world.

Rome marks the start of Season 10’s European leg and a key run of races for Maserati MSG Racing, with the outfit competing on home turf both in the Italian capital and in Monaco.

A pair of races in Berlin build up to a race in a yet to be announced location on 25 May.

Formula E’s most physically demanding race, Jakarta, returns at the start of June and leads into the penultimate race weekend of the season in Portland, Oregon.

Season 10 will conclude in London on 20-21 July where a World Champion will be crowned.

“2024 will be Formula E’s 10th season, and with the addition of Tokyo, the calendar already looks very promising. Motorsport is incredibly popular in Japan, so to showcase a pioneering series like Formula E in front of an engaged, passionate audience in an innovative market is an extremely exciting prospect. Not only does it allow Formula E to expand its own global reach, but it also facilitates a vital opportunity for us to amplify and share our own values as a team. At this stage the calendar looks culturally rich and diverse, and I can’t wait, especially for our home races in Rome and Monday in April.”
