Details

Battersea Park was home to the only circuit located in London, England from 2015 to 2016. It hosted the final two races of the 2014–15 Formula E season, and also the two final races of the second season. The track was 2.922 km in length and featured 17 turns. The track was designed by Formula E's London event team and British architect Simon Gibbons. Wandsworth Council approved of the circuit and the double race on 19 February 2015.There was controversy over the park circuit taking place in a Grade II* listed park, with opposition to the disruption the races and subsequent build period would cause to a free public space. Around the race weekends a majority of the park was closed to the public for four days with a three-week disruption period. The local community set up a group to oppose any further races in the park.In June 2016 Formula E announced that, on the basis of understanding between Formula E and the Battersea Park Action Group, Formula E will not return in 2017 or any date thereafter. Subsequently their venue use agreement for the park has been terminated and Battersea Park is no longer classed as a circuit.
