The Hyderabad E-Prix will be the fourth round of the ninth season of the Formula E championship. A total of 11 teams with 22 cars will participate in the Hyderabad Formula E race at India’s first street circuit.

FIA president expected to attend

Mohammad Bin Sulayem, president of the world governing body for four-wheel racing FIA, is expected to attend the event in Hyderabad.

The seven-month world championship, with 16 races, kicked off on 14 January in Mexico City (Mexico) and will finish in London (England) on 30 July.

Some of the prominent teams at the Hyderabad E-Prix event are McLaren, Maserati, Mahindra, Jaguar, Nissan, and Porsche.

The Telangana government, along with the private firm Ace Nxt Gen, has decided to live-stream the event on big screens across the city.

“The dream of hosting a Formula E racing event in an Indian city will be a reality soon. Proud that Hyderabad and Telangana got the opportunity to beat other prominent world cities. It’s an achievement for the country,” Telangana IT and Industries Minister KTR said on an earlier occasion.
