Formula E Evo Sessions for celebrity influencers set to return

Following its debut at the Miami International Autodrome last year, Formula E’s Evo Sessions event is returning for a second time on Feb. 15. While last year's Evo Sessions was a standalone that filled a gap in the race calendar, this year it will take place the day after the Jeddah E-Prix doubleheader in Saudi Arabia.

Evo Sessions gives influencers, content creators and celebrities the chance to drive Formula E’s GEN3 Evo cars, with each participant being aligned with one of the championship’s competing teams.

In a change to last year’s event, the new Evo Sessions will feature a competitive format that will be livestreamed on Formula E’s YouTube channel. More details are set to be revealed next week.

Last year’s Evo Sessions featured Brooklyn Peltz Beckham (pictured above), who drove for Jaguar; international soccer star Sergio Aguero with Porsche; tech content creator Cleo Abrams with McLaren; Yes Theory’s Ammar Kandil with Andretti; actress and automotive influencer Amelia Hartford with Maserati MSG Racing; TikTok creator Vinnie Hacker with DS Penske; actor Tom Felton with Envision Racing; automotive influencers Supercar Blondie and Juca with Nissan and Cupra Kiro respectively; Scott Mansell, otherwise known as Driver61, with Lola Yamaha Abt; and content creator Theo Baker with Mahindra.

This year’s participants will be announced over the next two weeks.

He was also comprehensively beaten in a kart race by Sebastien Loeb once, but who hasn’t been?
