The Tokyo ePrix is a race of the FIA Formula E World Championship, an all-electric single-seater racing series. The race was held for the first time at the Tokyo Street Circuit on 30 March 2024.[1]
History
Tokyo was one of the first cities contacted by Formula E before its first season, with co-founder Alberto Longo attending meetings with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government since 2013.[2] The event has been seen as a way of achieving Tokyo's goal to ensure all new automobiles are non-gasoline by 2030, with Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike stating that "the championships will give momentum to spread zero-emission vehicles".[3] After nearly a decade, a preliminary agreement was reached between Formula E and the Tokyo Government on 4 October 2022 to hold a race in the spring of 2024, with the race being officially announced on the provisional calendar for the 2023-24 season on 20 June 2023.[4][1] The first Tokyo ePrix was won by Maximilian Günther for Maserati MSG Racing.
Circuit
The circuit layout was firstly announced on 25 October 2023. It was originally proposed as 18-turn, 2.582 km (1.604 mi) street circuit around the Tokyo Big Sight.[5] However, the layout was modified before the first race to be a 20-turn, 2.585 km (1.606 mi) street circuit around the same venue, with a chicane placed at the originally high-speed Turn 16 kink.[6]
Before the second race in 2025, the track went through further changes, with the removal of the chicane at Turn 16. Additionally, Turn 1, 4, 6 were widened, Turn 6 and 8 had apex adjustments, and the infamous bump in the Turn 2-3 complex was smoothened, with the track being repaved in that section. The changes to the circuit garnered praise by several drivers, including Oliver Rowland and Pascal Wehrlein.[7]
