JAKARTA - Formula E Jakarta will be held at the Jakarta International E-Prix Circuit (JIEC) Ancol, North Jakarta, next June 4. This is a new circuit that will be a challenge for the riders.

The circuit that is the pride of DKI Jakarta Governor Anies Baswedan has a length of 2.37 kilometers, the same length as the New York City E-Prix track at Red Hook. There are 18 corners that will be devoured by the riders.

Unlike Formula E, JIEC is a track specifically designed to create a lasting legacy in the city and revive the area after the pandemic.

Based on the official Jakarta E-Prix website, the design of the Formula E circuit in Ancol, North Jakarta is different from designs in other countries. In fact, this circuit is claimed by the Organizing Committee (OC) for the Jakarta EPIX 2022, which will be difficult to imitate by other countries.

The shape of the track is inspired by Kuda Lumping, a traditional Javanese dance depicting cavalry made of woven bamboo and decorated with paint and cloth.

This circuit will give the impression of a fast and flowing circuit after Turn 4 to Turn 13. Turn 11 turn and ATTACK MODE turn 16 turn are also arranged in such a way as to give the driver extra room to create speed to the absolute limit.

It is said that the last sector in JIEC will provide difficulties for the riders. Especially the 12th and 13th Turns which have their own challenges.

Vice President Infrastructure & General Affairs OC Jakarta EPIX 2022 Irawan Sucahyono once said that the Jakarta Formula E race would provide an interesting spectacle.

"How to make this spectacle interesting? There must be a lot of ovetake, there must be a lot of competition among the racers," said Irawan in early May.

"Because the shape of the Ancol circuit allows for overtaking, this event will be very interesting. Maybe it will be the beginning of another form of Formula E circuit," he continued.
