Alejandro Agag has revealed plans for a night race in Formula E in the next few seasons during the official FIA press conference earlier today.

Agag mentioned that he is already in talks with potential host cities about staging a possible night race.

“We are thinking of doing night races,” Agag said. “The key element is how you produce electricity to light the streets. If we have a night race but we produce the energy from coal, you are going against the goals of the championship. We are already discussing with some of our venues about doing night races.”

Agag believes that a night races can attract more fans to the sport, as other motorsport series have seen a gain in television ratings on certain night races. Formula E has so far reached an audience of 56 million on TV, as well as having over 1.45 billion social media interactions over the first three races.
