The 'ABB FIA Formula E World Championship' Season 12, featuring its 12th and 13th rounds as the '2026 Shanghai E-PRIX', was held on July 4 and 5 in Shanghai, China. This event took place as a doubleheader (consecutive races) schedule that would significantly influence the overall standings in the latter half of the season.

The 'Shanghai International Circuit', where the races were held, is a motorsport venue combining long high-speed straight sections, sharp hairpin turns, and a mix of various low-speed and high-speed corners. During the event period, Shanghai experienced rapid weather changes with recurring high humidity, heavy rainfall, and dry track surfaces, causing the circuit's track conditions to fluctuate constantly. Amidst these challenging driving environments, drivers from each team engaged in bold overtaking battles and fierce position fights.

As a result of this doubleheader event, different winners emerged in the 12th and 13th rounds. 'Pascal Wehrlein' of the 'PORSCHE FORMULA E TEAM' and 'Lucas di Grassi' of the 'LOLA YAMAHA ABT FORMULA E TEAM' each claimed their respective round victory trophies.

With only four rounds remaining in the full schedule of Formula E Season 12, the conclusion of this Shanghai event is expected to intensify the competition for the lead positions in both the Drivers' Championship and Teams' Championship as they vie for the ultimate title.

Following the Shanghai event, the Formula E World Championship will continue its schedule with the '2026 Tokyo E-PRIX', a doubleheader (14th and 15th rounds) held on July 25 and 26 in Tokyo, Japan. The Tokyo event is scheduled to be the first Formula E night race held in Japan. The 'Tokyo Street Circuit', where the races take place, features narrow technical corners characteristic of urban circuits harmonized with high-speed turns, demanding precise driving skills.
