The stage is set for Formula E’s return to NYC. Last year they made history by bringing the very first international car race to New York City. This year Red Hook, Brooklyn will once again be center stage for the grand finale on July 14 & 15. Rounds 11 & 12 feature a back to back race weekend with the only circuit to feature the iconic Manhattan skyline and Statue of Liberty as the backdrop. For 2018 the Brooklyn Circuit will feature an even longer track than last season, spanning 1.52 miles. 10 teams and 20 drivers will head into the double header weekend finale but only one team and one driver will come out with the championship.
