The FIA have confirmed an official calendar for season three of the Formula E series which begins on October 9 in Hong Kong.
Five new cities are introduced for season three: New York, Montreal, Brussels, Hong Kong and Marrakech.
Buenos Aires, Mexico City, Paris and Berlin remain on the calendar for next season whilst Monte Carlo on May 13 will return after hosting the Monaco ePrix in season one.
The Long Beach race has been removed from the calendar whilst two spots remain open for a potential ePrix in Singapore and London. Battersea Park will not host the London race in season two.
“Today and tomorrow the finale of the second season of the FIA Formula E Championship takes place in London and already, the third season promises to be even more exciting,” said FIA President Jean Todt.
“It will tackle a schedule that takes it to some of the most beautiful cities on no fewer than four continents, starting in Hong Kong and finishing in New York.
“It’s been less than two years since Formula E made its debut in Beijing and today it has staked its claim to being one of the most interesting and innovative championships on the current motorsport scene at a global level, which was not something that could have been taken for granted when it first began.”
