All Electric FIA Formula E Championship now has a 2014/2015 schedule

2. The final 2014-2015 FIA Formula E Championship calendar unveiled today.
From Punta del Este to Beijing – Los Angeles to Rio de Janeiro, the brand-new FIA Formula E Championship now has a calendar for the 2014/2015 inaugural season. All 10 teams will use the Spark-Renault SRT_01E, which wrapped up it trials sessions last month. The overall reaction to its performance was positive.

Each race will consist of a open practice, qualifying and the one hour race on the same day. There’s supposed to be a concert at each venue too. All of it takes place on one day to minimize the impact grand prix-style racing has on a city. The FIA and Formula E Holdings, promoters of the new FIA Formula E Championship, are hush-hush about the racing routes for now.
