Background

History

Formula E has raced in Italy since 2018 with the Rome ePrix taking place at the Circuito Cittadino dell'EUR. However, following a review by experts following a multi-car pile up crash in the 2023 edition, it was decided that a new Italian venue should be found. Multiple other tracks were considered by Formula E, such as Imola Circuit and Vallelunga Circuit.^[1]

On 22 November 2023, it was announced that the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli would host the new Italian race in the 2023–24 season, with a double-header weekend.^[2]

Circuit

On 23 February 2024, it was announced that a specific layout would be built and used for the Formula E race, in which the layout will have 3.381 km (2.101 mi) length and 14 turns.^[3]

Championship standings

Pascal Wehrlein enters the ePrix weekend as the leader in the Drivers' Championship with a two point lead over Nick Cassidy, followed by Oliver Rowland (nine points behind) and defending champion Jake Dennis (10 points behind).

Prior to the race, Jaguar hold a 17 point lead over Porsche in the Teams' Championship, with Andretti in third and Nissan in fourth. In the Manufacturers' Trophy, Jaguar hold a seven point lead over Porsche, with Nissan in third.
