The FIA’s new Formula E Championship is gathering speed with the launch of the FIA Formula E Team China Racing.
Team China Racing was officially proposed to the FIA as the second of ten teams set to take part in the ground-breaking zero-emissions Formula E Championship, which launches next year.
British-based Drayson Racing was the first team to sign up, while Rio de Janeiro and Rome are the first two cities to commit to hosting a race.
While Team China Racing will initially use the Formula E Championship customer car currently being developed by Spark Racing Technology (SRT), McLaren and Dallara, its aim is to build its own Chinese electric formula cars within three years, supported by Chinese EV manufacturers.
Team China Racing has previously competed in championships including A1GP, Superleague Formula and FIA GT1.
