The Formula E season start is usually one of the first motorsport events on the yearly calendar, and 2024 will be no difference. The 2024 Formula E season starts with the Mexico City E-Prix on the 13th January. At the FIA Prize Giving Gala on Friday, Jake Dennis spoke about how eager he is to get started in the New Year.
When is the first Formula E race of the 2024 season?
Season 10 starts with the Mexico City E-Prix on Saturday, 13th January 2024. The drivers will get two free practice sessions on Friday 12 before going out for qualifying on Saturday morning. The race takes place in the afternoon local time. But what about pre-season testing?
Testing took place in Valencia between 23rd and 27th October 2023. 19 of the 21 drivers on-track in the final session set fastest-lap times, all within just 0.7 seconds. New Zealanders Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy topped the timesheets for Jaguar. Antonio Felix Da Costa rounded out the top three. Jake Dennis finished with the 12th fastest time, while Nyck de Vries finished 18th fastest.
