2026 Formula E London E-Prix Schedule and Key Times

Highlights

  • 2026 Formula E season concludes with London E-Prix double-header.
  • Final races on ExCeL circuit before moving to Brands Hatch.
  • Lucas di Grassi leaves Formula E after this weekend’s races.
  • Jake Dennis leads title fight against Evans, Wehrlein, and Rowland.

  • Gen3 car era ends; Gen4 cars debut next season.

Formula E’s 2026 season concludes with a London E-Prix double-header at the ExCeL Centre, staging rounds 16 and 17 and deciding the world champion this weekend.

The finale also closes the four-season Gen3 era and brings ExCeL’s last appearance before the UK round moves to Brands Hatch alongside Gen4’s debut next year.

Gen3 era ends in London; Gen4 debuts next season at Brands Hatch.

Format tweaks split the two races. Saturday features Pit Boost. Sunday reverts to two Attack Modes. Both start at 15:00 BST to avoid Formula 1 clashes and maximise audiences.

Nine remain mathematically eligible, yet the realistic fight is four-way: Jake Dennis, Mitch Evans, Pascal Wehrlein and Oliver Rowland. The top three are separated by five points.

Top three separated by five points as Dennis, Evans and Wehrlein chase Rowland’s crown.

Dennis leads for Andretti, powered by Porsche. Evans spearheads Jaguar. Wehrlein fronts Porsche’s works effort. Rowland anchors Nissan. Only Evans among them lacks a title.

Momentum and context matter. Dennis enters as slight favourite. Evans targets a Jaguar farewell with silverware. Wehrlein seeks redemption after 2025. Rowland chases consecutive crowns as the title battle peaks.

This weekend also brings a farewell. Lucas di Grassi, long a benchmark presence, departs the series after London, closing a foundational chapter of Formula E.

Lucas di Grassi bids farewell to Formula E after this weekend.

Track action begins Friday with Free Practice 1, 16:00–16:40 BST. Saturday runs FP2 at 08:30–09:10, qualifying 10:40–11:48, and race at 15:00.

Sunday mirrors the template: FP3 at 08:30, qualifying at 10:40, and the second race at 15:00. The compact programme echoes the Tokyo E-Prix schedule.

Both races start 15:00 BST; Saturday uses Pit Boost, Sunday two Attack Modes.

The venue shift to Brands Hatch should reset priorities and expose Gen4’s traits, from efficiency to deployment. The calendar is evolving, including plans around Barcelona 2027.

Expect disciplined energy management on ExCeL’s mixed-surface layout. Pit Boost timing and Attack Mode placement will decide track position as teams juggle risk versus championship arithmetic.

London closes an era with competitive clarity and high jeopardy. A champion will be crowned, a venue farewelled, and Formula E will turn decisively toward its Gen4 future.
