Driver numbers revealed for Formula E's Season 13; full list here
The FIA have officially announced the full list of driver numbers for Formula E's upcoming Season 13, the first of its Gen4 era. The upcoming season's grid will feature 24 drivers spread across 12 teams, a first full grid in the championship since the 2021 Berlin E-Prix.
A total of 19 drivers have been announced for the upcoming season, with a further five expected to be announced in the lead-up to pre-season testing, commencing on Monday, November 16, 2026, at the Circuito Del Jarama.
However, it also remains to be seen how Taylor Barnard and Fortescue Zero's late contractual entanglement plays out. The Briton was not present at the team's launch event in London last week, sparking rumours of a potential split even before the season had commenced.
This latest series of events will certainly add more to the hubbub of activity expected in the lead-up to testing, with the final list of confirmed drivers for the season to be announced by the FIA on Sunday, November 15, 2026. This comes one day before pre-season testing officially kicks off in Jarama.
To distinguish between two drivers from the same team, one car will run a yellow T-Camera housing above the airbox, allowing fans and viewers to identify it from a distance. The FIA has notified this in its entry list, circulated ahead of the upcoming season.

Among the rookies on the Formula E grid, Envision Racing's Zak O'Sullivan will sport the number 15.
