Formula E 2025-2026 6 2026-03-21 2026-03-21 https://r2.thesportsdb.com/images/media/event/thumb/5x2lni1755714970.jpg https://r2.thesportsdb.com/images/media/event/poster/ck6ydl1755714961.jpg Formula E makes its historic debut in the Spanish capital at the Circuito del Jarama, marking the first competitive outing at this venue following its emergency role as a pre-season testing site. The primary challenge for the 22-car field is the technical nature of the 3.915 km permanent circuit, which is significantly longer and more demanding than typical street tracks. For championship leader Pascal Wehrlein, the objective is to defend his slim six-point margin in a race that introduces Pit Boost—a fast-charging pit stop technology—to a single-header event for the first time. Strategically, the Madrid E-Prix is a "calculation game." The objective for teams like Jaguar TCS Racing is to perfectly time the mandatory Pit Boost stop to minimize time lost in the lane while maximizing the subsequent power advantage. With home favorite Pepe Martí making his highly anticipated debut on home soil for CUPRA KIRO, the tactical focus for the field is on energy management across the 23-lap distance, as the high-speed sections of Jarama threaten to deplete battery reserves faster than the usual urban corridors. 2317894
