Formula E has not officially an🐼nounced how the calendar will be rejigged, though as reported by e-racing 365, the series is set to request that the rounds in Berlin and New York are shuffled back to June and July respectively. The final 2019-20 calendar will be presented next month .

"The calendaღr for this coming sea༒son of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship was already shaping up to be something special, but to add another race in Asia and Indonesia in particular is incredibly exciting,” said Formula E co-founder and chief championship officer Alberto Longo.

“Indonesia has an affinity with motorsport - hosting races an🤪d events in the past and developing drivers who’ve progressed up the ladder - as well as having an extremely engaged and growing fan base.

“On top of that, it’s also an emerging market for electric vehicles, with increased investment already bein♛g made to push production and clean up the air around the cities.

“Formula E wants to play a part in that positive change and with the most competitive grid of manufacturers in motorsport, I c𓃲an’t wait to go green in Jakarta on June 6 next year.

“Thank you to both Ikatan Motor Indonesia a𒈔nd the city of Jakarta for making it happen and collectively supporting the wider electric movement.ღ"
