Formula E extends ITV partnership

Formula E has announced a new multi-year broadcast agreement with British broadcaster ITV.

ITV will thus serve as the exclusive broadcaster of the all-electric racing series in the UK and Ireland, offering free-to-air coverage until the end of the 2026/27 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

Starting with the upcoming 2025/26 Formula E season, all 18 races of the campaign will be broadcast either on ITV4 (and simulcast on ITVX) or exclusively on ITVX, with a highlights show airing in the week after each race also part of the agreement.

Jonathan Salt, VP, Media at Formula E, said:

“Our extended partnership with ITV is fantastic news for Formula E fans across the UK and Ireland, ensuring that the thrill of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship remains free and accessible to the widest possible audience. With our largest calendar yet and the exciting conclusion of the GEN3 Evo era, we’re looking forward to delivering incredible action to millions of homes.”

Richard Botchway, Assistant Commissioner of ITV Sport, added:

“It’s an incredibly exciting time for Formula E and we are proud to continue our partnership with them for a further two years. In what is the largest season of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship so far, we will continue to bring the very best action free-to-air across ITV4 and ITVX.”
