On 18 September 2014 it was announced that Formula E would be racing on a shorter version of the original Monaco Grand Prix circuit for the 2014–15 season.[1] This version misses out the hill, Casino square, the iconic hairpin, the famous tunnel and the chicane.However, since the 2020–21 season, the ePrix has been held on the traditional full-length Monaco circuit.In 2020, virtual version of the track hosted the first ever Race At Home series due to travelling and restrictions around mass gatherings from 2020 Coronavirus pandemic.[5] However, on the week of Monaco ePrix, it was decided to use T1 like the Formula One circuit in order to regenerate more energy by braking.
