国际汽联（FIA）已授予电动方程式世界锦标赛地位，经投票表决，从 2020/21 赛季开始，该系列赛将被认定为 ABB FIA 电动方程式世界锦标赛。

国际汽车联合会（FIA）是世界汽车运动的管理和认可机构，其世界汽车运动理事会（WMSC）的现任成员最近投票决定并同意将电动方程式认证为 FIA 世界锦标赛。

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

向国际汽联认可的单座赛车最高级别过渡，意味着赛车运动中最具竞争力的车队和车手阵容将在下赛季角逐新命名的 ABB 国际汽联电动方程式世界锦标赛冠军。

The announcement comes off the back of Formula E’s most successful season to date – with nine different race winners and growing audience figures – 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.

国际汽联主席让-托特

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.”

电动方程式创始人兼主席：亚历杭德罗-阿加格

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.”
