Formula E returns to action on Wednesday to kick-off its relentless run to complete the 2019/20 season, with six races in nine days all taking place under coronavirus-enforced conditions in Berlin.

The German city was initially slated to stage one round of the Formula E season, but with the landscape of the calendar forced to change dramatically following the outbreak of Covid-19, a new schedule was drawn up to create a ‘bio-bubble’ in Berlin where teams and drivers can minimise the risk posed by returning to action.

The series did manage to complete five rounds before the enforced hiatus, producing five different winners that sees Antonio Felix da Costa sit top of the championship standings, having won last time out in Marrakesh more than five months ago.

But back-to-back races on Wednesday and Thursday plus a double-header this weekend will put Da Costa’s advantage to the test, with all other 23 drivers retaining a mathematical chance of clinching the title when the final two races take place at the start of next week.

Da Costa leads the standings by just 11 points going into the sixth round of the season, but with 25 points available for a race win, the Portuguese sits precariously ahead of Mitch Evans, Alexander Sims and Max Guenther, who could all overtake him in just one round.

Here’s everything you need to know about Formula E’s return.
