Formula E’s London E-Prix event will broadcast free-to-air (FTA) on Quest in the UK and Ireland, the all-electric, single-seater racing series has announced.
The London E-Prix comprises the final two rounds of the Formula E World Championship, which will take place at ExCeL London on 20th and 21st July.
Quest is operated by media giant Warner Bros Discovery, which also owns TNT Sports, the pay-TV network that serves as Formula E’s UK and Ireland broadcast rights partner.
The 15th and 16th rounds of the season will see Formula E’s Driver, Team Championship and Manufacturers’ Trophy titles claimed, at the conclusion of the series’ tenth season.
“Along with the extended race weekend build-up and coverage from our media partner TNT Sports, it’s fantastic to be able to showcase the conclusion of this year’s Formula E championship live and free-to-air on an additional platform – especially for the UK’s home race – allowing even more viewers to watch all the exciting on-track action,” said Jeff Dodds, CEO of Formula E.
Scott Young, Group SVP of Content, Production and Business Operations at WBD Sports Europe, added, “We are delighted to be able to bring the series additional exposure via our largest free-to-air channel in the United Kingdom for fans across the country.”
