2021 Extreme E Championship
The 2021 Extreme E Championship will be the inaugural season of the Extreme E electric off-road racing series. It is scheduled to start on 3 April with the Desert X-Prix in Saudi Arabia.[1]
Calendar
A provisional race schedule was announced on 17 December 2019, which would have seen a season start in January 2021 with an event in Senegal.[2] But because of delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic the start of the season was pushed back to spring 2021, and a race in Ushuaia, Argentina was presented to replace a Nepal-based event.[3]
