After Antonio Felix da Costa won the opening round in December, the Formula E season heads to Morocco for the Marrakesh E-Prix! It is the third E-Prix in Morocco, which remains in its January slot.
All the action for UK fans airs live on YouTube and BT Sport. Eurosport is airing delayed coverage of qualifying, followed immediately by live coverage of the race. Meanwhile, Final Score delays the BBC’s Red Button output, however the race still airs live via BBC’s online platforms. Highlights air on Quest on Saturday evening, repeated on Sunday morning.
Following its first outing last month, Formula E’s bespoke YouTube show Voltage returns in Marrakesh, with XO stars Stephen Tries and Will Lenney the guests this time around.
The Jaguar I-Pace eTrophy Series, which supported the main attraction in Saudi Arabia, returns to the Formula E support bill next month in Mexico City.

This is one of the many reasons why I said the current TV deal is stupid and not good for the series.. but hey I’m just stupid right?? 🙄
I dunno, airing straight after final score could be good for the series if they promote it correctly. But they probably won’t and you’re probably right.
I can’t believe the BBC way of scheduling: this is My Suggestion
