The Jeddah ePrix is a race of the single-seater, electrically powered Formula E championship, held in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. It was first held as part of the 2024–25 season.[1]

History

[edit]

The Saudi Arabian round was previously held in Diriyah six times from 2018 to 2024, as the first Formula E event held in the Middle East. In September 2024, it was confirmed that the race would be moved to Jeddah in 2025.

Circuit

[edit]

The race was held at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit in Jeddah, the same venue used by the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in Formula One. The track layout for the Formula E ePrix was shortened to 3.001 km (1.865 mi), with the addition of a hairpin connecting Turn 3 to Turn 22 on the F1 layout, and four chicanes placed on the front and back straightaways.[2]
