The Formula One Esports China Championship has returned! The F1 Esports Series’ first and only region-specific chapter has returned for a thrilling third season, kicking off with a lavish event at the Shanghai Automobile Exhibition Center in Shanghai’s Jiading District.

The event brought together all ten teams competing in the 2021 Pro League, allowing them to get a head start on the upcoming season.
