- London will have hosted a race in six seasons. Only Berlin (all 10 seasons), Mexico City (eight seasons) and Monaco (seven seasons) have hosted races more often than London

- If either Mitch Evans scores 12 points in London or Lucas di Grassi scores 15 points across the weekend, they will be the first drivers to have scored 900 points for a single team

- Jaguar teammates of Mitch Evans and Nick Cassidy both have impressive qualifying records in London, having each only been out qualified once by their prior teammates. One of these drivers will lose this record next weekend

- Across the 10 prior races in London, there have been a total of 16 times the Safety Car has been deployed (a record for a single city). Five of the six races to have taken place around the ExCeL have seen the Safety Car or Full Course Yellow deployed

- Due to its tight nature, it can be tricky to overtake in London. However, last season Lucas di Grassi finished in sixth place from 20th on the grid (the most positions gained in a single race in London)

- Pascal Wehrlein, Mitch Evans and Jean-Eric Vergne have all completed every lap so far in Season 10. The only previous season where three drivers managed to complete ever lap was Season 6

- The polesitter has taken six podiums from 10 starts in London, including four wins

- Due to the wet weather and lengthy Red Flags, last season’s finale was the longest ever Formula E race at over two hours and 13 minutes in length (and 36 minutes longer than any previous race)

- Across the two races last season in London, the pole position margin was just 0.026 seconds in Race 1 and 0.010 seconds in Race 2 (the closest two pole margins in London)

- Porsche teammates, and championship hopefuls, Pascal Wehrlein and Antonio Felix da Costa have only one top eight finish between them across all Formula E final races of the season (a sixth place for Wehrlein in Season 7)
