Mexico City E-Prix Races To Record Viewership

Formula E has today announced that the 2025 Hankook Mexico City E-Prix race delivered a record-breaking cumulative audience of 10.5 million on CBS, surpassing all but one F1 race for a US broadcast audience in the last two seasons.

The Mexican E-Prix cumulative audience in the US was 80% larger than the inaugural 2023 Las Vegas GP, and the highest of a single programme in Formula E history, showing increasing demand across the country for some of the most thrilling and competitive motorsport on the planet.

In the UK, a strong appetite for the fastest growing motorsport continues as the opening round of Season 11 in São Paulo saw a 120% increase in like-for-like viewership against the same race in Season 10, thanks to a new free-to-air broadcast deal with ITV. Fans can now engage with the sport live on ITV4 and ITVX.

In total, the opening round in Brazil recorded a cumulative audience of 40 million viewers, making it the most-viewed opening round and one of the most-watched races in the series’ 11-season history.

The overall viewership of the 2025 Hankook Mexico E-Prix from within Mexico also grew by 10% year-on-year, while viewership within Germany and France surged 65% and 64% respectively, showing signs of a strong and growing fanbase across Europe as the series enters only its second decade of racing.
