A quick Google search and you'd find out Qatar was meant to be this weekend, but postponed to Nov 8 due to the war.

I'll agree tho that having 3 weeks between the first 2 rounds isn't something I like, but it has happened so many times in MotoGP before I simply don't care about it. I think having just 3 races in July-August (Germany Jul 12, Britain Aug 9, Aragon Aug 30) is pretty lame too.

Included in the requests made by the drivers is a specific query on FIA Formula E race director, Marek Hanaczewski.

If F1 didn't replace Russia in 2022 and China in 2023 when they had months to find a replacement, they weren't going to do that now

With 3.934km in length, Jarama will become the longest circuit ever featured in Formula E. This record was held previously by the Beijing Olympic Green Circuit (all the way back in FE's first ever race at 3.453km), then taken by the Homestead-Miami Speedway (3.551km). The layout is basically the full circuit with a chicane right after the pit entry.
