Formula E has been granted world championship status by the FIA, in a vote that will see the series recognized as the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship from the start of the 2020\/21 season.<\/p>\n

The Federation Internationale de l\u2019Automobile, the governing and sanctioning body for world motorsport, and sitting members of the FIA World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) recently voted upon and agreed to move forward with certifying Formula E as an FIA world championship.<\/p>\n

Founder & Chairman of Formula E Alejandro Agag \u2013 alongside FIA President Jean Todt \u2013 signed the agreement together at FIA headquarters at Place de la Concorde in Paris, to officially confirm world championship status for season seven.<\/p>\n

Transitioning to the highest level in the FIA sanctioned single-seater hierarchy, means the most competitive line-up of teams and drivers in motorsport will compete for the newly named ABB FIA Formula E World Championship title next season.<\/p>\n

The announcement comes off the back of Formula E\u2019s most successful season to date \u2013 with nine different race winners and growing audience figures \u2013 and shortly after the opening two rounds of season six and the much-anticipated arrival of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche at the SAUDIA Diriyah E-Prix.<\/p>\n

FIA President: Jean Todt<\/strong><\/p>\n

The creation and development of Formula E has been a great adventure. I am proud that today we confirm its FIA world championship status. Since we started this journey, Formula E has undoubtedly gone from strength to strength. Within a short timeframe, the series has proven itself relevant for the automotive industry with two more major car manufacturers having joined the championship at the start of the current season, bringing the total number to 10. The commitment and professionalism of those manufacturers and their respective teams is mirrored in the quality of the driver roster, which has improved with every season. Since its first race in Beijing in 2014 and with every E-Prix thereafter, Formula E has proven that the concept of cutting-edge electric racing works. I wholeheartedly welcome Formula E as the latest FIA world championship.\u201d<\/p>\n

Founder & Chairman of Formula E: Alejandro Agag<\/strong><\/p>\n

It was always our ambition to one day become an FIA world championship. Everything we have done and delivered to this point has been working towards this moment in time. Achieving the feat and being granted with FIA world championship status adds more credibility to what is already a fully-fledged formula of racing and a spectacular sporting product. This agreement and announcement truly place Formula E in the top tier of international single-seater racing. It has been a tremendous effort from many people involved and none of it would have been possible without the support of FIA President Jean Todt and the federation, as well as the dedication and commitment shown by our teams and partners. Now we can say we have done it. But it is only the beginning of a new chapter under the banner of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.\u201d<\/p>\n
