2023 is a big year for MotoE™ . No longer a Cup , the electric competition gains World Championship status this season . Not just that ; a new manufacturer will provide the bikes . And the calendar expands to eight rounds ! In 2023 , MotoE™ welcomes Ducati as the single manufacturer , with plenty to look forward to as the grid switch machinery and get ready for the most comprehensive season ever . Eight rounds in seven countries saw MotoE™ join the MotoGP™ paddock from Le Mans , kicking off competition alongside the 1000th Grand Prix , and the season runs all the way through to Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli . That ’ s every MotoGP™ stop in Europe between May and early September , creating a 16-race , eight-round , action-packed MotoE™ season . Every team will now have two bikes as Dynavolt Intact GP MotoE™ and Ongetta SIC58 Squadra Corse expand , making it nine teams and 18 riders set to contest MotoE™ ’ s first season as a World Championship . Present at every European Grand Prix from Le Mans to Misano and racing on all-new Ducati machinery , MotoE™ begins a new era of competition in 2023 . The timetable also changes in 2023 . Saturday is now the showstopper for the

FIM Enel MotoE™ World Championship . It ’ s race day – and nothing else ! The two showdowns now both take place on Saturday afternoon , making it a true spectacle for fans at the track and viewers at home . Amongst the riders , some familiar names return , including two-time Cup winner Jordi Torres , now at Openbank Aspar Team , and first ever Cup winner Matteo Ferrari ( Felo Gresini MotoE™ ). The pair are locked in a vintage fight for the title , with the Spaniard leading the Italian by just eight points . Consistent contender Eric Granado is back at LCR E-Team and Mattia Casadei , a key protagonist in 2022 , remains at Pons Racing 40 . Neither can be ruled out for a race win at any of the remaining rounds . The rookie ranks make for interesting reading too , headlined by Tito Rabat as the 2014 Moto2™ World Champion returns to the Grand Prix paddock to take on MotoE™ . Randy Krummenacher is already a regular podium contender after joining Dynavolt Intact GP MotoE™ , adding another class to his CV of 125cc , Moto2™ , WorldSSP and WorldSBK experience . With new Ducati machinery for everyone on the grid , the rookies will be an even more interesting watch – and there are plenty fresh faces !
