2014/15 Formula E calendar confirmed

In September we’ll be transported to a new era of motorsport when the Formula E championship begins in Beijing. In its inaugural year, which will run across 2014 and 2015, Formula E will host 10 races across four continents.

All races will be held on a Saturday, rather than the traditional Sunday as we’re familiar with in F1 and so on.

It’s also interesting to note the locations, which includes three races in South America and on both the east and west coast of the United States. The timing of the Monaco race in 2015 is also noteworthy, likely to be just a few weeks prior to the Formula 1 Grand Prix. Similarly, a week after Sao Paulo hosts its Formula 1 Grand Prix in early November, Rio de Janeiro will host its first Formula E race.

We’ll bring you up to speed on the cars and teams soon, but for now you can find out more at the official Formula E website.
