Formula E held a minute’s silence for Valencia ahead of the first session of pre-season testing.

Formula E received praise for successfully relocating pre-season testing from Valencia to Madrid last minute, due to the tragic flooding in Valencia which resulted in over 200 deaths. The series moved testing to Circuito de Jarama just north of Madrid, a venue that hosted F1 in 1981, ensuring all 11 teams could complete necessary running before the season-opener on December 7. Drivers and teams commended Formula E for its prompt and thoughtful response to the unforeseen situation, holding a minute’s silence before the testing to honor those affected in Valencia. The logistical challenge of moving equipment from Valencia to Madrid in 72 hours was a remarkable achievement for the category, with drivers like Sam Bird and Mitch Evans highlighting the impressive coordination. Despite the challenges, Formula E prioritized Valencia’s recovery efforts and maintained a strong spirit of support and determination throughout the testing relocation.
