The E1 Series will make its return to the Corniche of Jeddah in 2025 to kick off its second season with the opening race, following its global debut in Saudi Arabia during the E1 GP of Jeddah last February. The iconic RaceBirds will once again glide through these familiar waters on January 24 and 25, 2025.
This competition in Jeddah will serve as the starting point for an expanded calendar that will feature seven events spread across multiple continents. Presented in collaboration with the Saudi Arabian Ministry of Sports and the Saudi Federation for Aquatic Sports and Diving, the race will take place near the coastline, in the shimmering waters of the Red Sea.
Nine teams have already confirmed their participation in the inaugural race of the second season, with the league hinting in recent months that more teams might join before the season begins.
