Formula E is one of the few motorsport classes that had already started, because the F1 season runs over two calendar years and the drivers had already driven five races. However, this season is now going to have a sequel in Europe.

Just like Formula 1, 2 and 3, Formula E returns to the tube. Six races are still being held to finish the season, but because the new season of 2020-2021 will start at the end of this year, the organization doesn't have much time to schedule races and the electric class has one big disadvantage: Races are in the middle of the city.

Six races in eight days

However, a solution has been found for this. The six races will not be held on different circuits, but only in Berlin. The German capital will be the scene of the last six races in the 2019-2020 Formula E Championship and to increase the pressure even further, the six races will be completed in eight days.

At the historic and closed Tempelhof airport in Berlin the Formula E championship has to come to an end in eight days. Antonio Felix da Costa is with 67 the leader in the championship for the DS Techeetah team, but in Formula E there is still plenty of room for improvement. Dutchmen Nyck de Vries and Robin Frijns have to come from good houses to become champion, with respectively 18 and 10 points behind their names.
