La 7th edition of the Monaco E-Prix is almost upon us. On Saturday 27 April, the best Formula E drivers will be battling it out on the Principality’s track. Here’s everything you need to know in the run-up to this iconic event.
For seven years now, the E-Prix has taken place on the Monaco circuit a few weeks before the legendary Formula 1 Grand Prix. Made up entirely of 100% electric single-seaters, the E-Prix stands out because of its more environmentally-friendly approach.
