The 10 teams and 20 drivers will have two non-qualifying sessions in the morning \u2013 lasting 45 minutes and 30 minutes &#8211; followed by a qualifying session split into four groups of five cars with the order selected at random beforehand. The race itself will last approximately 60 minutes with the race distance (exact number of laps) determined on the day.<\/p>\n<p>The final Formula E pre-season test takes place at Donington Park on August 19 with free admission to the public. Some 4000 fans have already pre-registered their interest for the last opportunity to see the cars and drivers before the season opener.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Formula E, which has Michelin as its official tyre supplier, has completed two full event simulations as the world\u2019s first all-electric single-seater championship gears up for its first race in Beijing on September 13.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":9138,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[649,650,15,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9137","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-brands","category-car-tyres","category-michelin","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.5 -
