Most of Spain has been affected by rainfall, but the Valencia region has been particularly hit hard, with a year’s worth of rain falling in just eight hours in the nearby town of Chiva. As a result, 51 people have lost their lives in the floods, prompting the police to establish an emergency hotline – 9006 5112. Formula E has expressed their condolences, stating they are coordinating with local authorities and the Ricardo Tormo Circuit representatives for the upcoming official test. Due to a burst river bank damaging the main access road, the circuit is currently inaccessible by vehicle, but track conditions seem unaffected, with staff able to reach it by foot. Alternative access routes are being explored, and updates will be provided as the situation develops.
