‘JULIUS BEAR SWISS E-PRIX’:
Formula E race ‘JULIUS BEAR SWISS E-PRIX’ was held on June 22nd.
France’s Jean-Eric Berne won and attracted a crowd of 100,000.
Held in Bern:
Switzerland had been banned from holding car races in the wake of the 1955 Le Mans 24 Hour Endurance Race.
However, a legislative amendment allowing only EV races to be held was carried out in December 2015, and was lifted from 2016.
Formula E will be held in Zurich in 2018.
This time Zurich was held in Bern due to the summer festival once in three years in July.
