1. Diriyah E-Prix – Formula E

Another successful year is done and dusted!

It was the first race of Season 6 of the FIA ABB Formula E Championship, the world’s premier all-electric motorsport series which is contributing massively to the development of new technologies, renewable energies and electric vehicles. At the forefront of racing and sustainability combined, this year saw Sam Bird take home the trophy following a nail-biting finals day, the energy in the stadium was truly out of this world!
