# Formula E Race at Home Challenge

The Formula E Race at Home Challenge (formally the ABB Formula E Race at Home Challenge in support of UNICEF) was a series of esports events held as a temporary replacement of the suspended 2019–20 Formula E season due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The series was run on the platform of rFactor 2. The virtual tournament was broadcast on various Formula E social channels along with selected television partners.
British racing driver Charlie Martin was announced as the first guest participant in the Race at Home Challenge, and will occupy a permanent guest role for the entirety of the series. As such, she became the first transgender driver to be affiliated with FIA Formula E and joined a host of other female drivers who had either competed in the series or who had participated in test events.
Daniel Abt had all his points taken away after the Berlin race as he was found to have used professional gamer, Lorenz Hörzing in his place. Abt additionally paid £8,900 (10,000 Euros) to charity. Hörzing was banned from the Challenge grid outright. Abt was later suspended and released by Audi.

## Footnotes

* ↑ Originally it was the final ten.
* ↑ Drivers who failed to pre-qualify for any given round are not listed here. Those who already made it into the championship, but failed to pre-qualify for any given round, are only listed in the Challenge Grid standings as "did not pre-qualify" (DNPQ). This only includes those drivers who actually entered the pre-qualifying stage of that round. Drivers who did pre-qualify for any given round, but did not enter it, are only listed in the Challenge Grid standings as "did not participate" (DNP) and also in the Replacements subsection.
* ↑ For Round 4, LaFlamme was registered to drive for the Venturi Racing car no. 48, but instead drove the Audi car no. 66, which was officially assigned to Alisdair Irvine, meaning that Audi had three drivers that day.
* 1 2 For Round 4, Paterson was registered to drive for the BMW i Andretti car no. 27, but instead drove the Venturi car no. 48, which was officially assigned to Alex LaFlamme, who instead ran in an Audi car no. 66.
* ↑ Guest drivers had been invited to the championship without the need to pre-qualify for the rounds they entered.
* ↑ The top 10 from previous race included a guest driver (Cem Bölükbaşı), who was not eligible to pre-qualify this way as guest drivers are invited separately, meaning that only nine drivers pre-qualified via the previous race result. In previous cases, both James Rossiter and Alex Lynn did not free up an extra spot despite finishing in the top 10 in their respective races, suggesting a possible rule change has been made since.
* ↑ Vergne was penalised after the race and did not receive any points.
