What is EVO Sessions?

After the huge success of EVO Sessions last year, drawing in names like Brooklyn Beckham, Sergio Agüero and Mr Beast, the event is back for 2026. Announced during the broadcast of last month’s Miami E-Prix, in a one-day extravaganza, Formula E will hand its world-class GEN3 Evo race cars to some of the biggest global personalities, this time with even more on the line and a new competitive format.

In this year's iteration of EVO Sessions, two teams of online personalities - Señor Frogs and Quickstars - will go head-to-head on the Jeddah Corniche Circuit in front of a global audience. But who will come out on top?

How will it work?

Initially, each EVO Sessions driver will take part in a 15 minute qualifying session, in which they'll get the chance to have the Jeddah Corniche Circuit to themselves. But these 15 minutes aren't just for getting used to the GEN3 Evo, it's also about setting the best possible lap time.

After all ten drivers have had the opportunity to set their lap times, they will be sorted from fastest to slowest within their team, with the top 8 advancing to the quarter final Duels. The Duels will follow the usual Formula E format, with two drivers (one from each team) going head-to-head to set the fastest lap and advance to the semi finals and eventually the final. At each stage, the victorious driver will win points for their team.

The driver who makes it to the final and defeats their opponent will take home the Individual Winners Trophy. However, there's not just personal glory at stake, both teams are competing to win the most points and claim the EVO Sessions Winners Trophy for their respective team.

When is the event happening?

EVO Sessions will take place on Sunday, February 15, at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, following Formula E's Jeddah E-Prix double-header. Coverage will begin at 15:30 GMT.

Teams and drivers from the Formula E paddock will be on hand to support the ten personalities getting behind-the-wheel of the GEN3 Evo, offering advice and insight on what the can expect before they take to the track.

How can I watch Evo Sessions?

This year’s iteration of EVO Sessions, will be streamed live exclusively on Formula E’s YouTube channel, marking a huge leap forward in terms of what’s possible on the track, as fans will be able to watch the whole event in real time.

You can also follow the action of Formula E's social media channels and the Formula E website.

Who will be taking part in EVO Sessions?

SEÑOR FROGS

The Señor Frogs team will be lead by YouTuber 'TheBurntChip', who is no stranger to world of motorsport. Chip and his friends have taken part in many 24 hour karting races, under the colours of the Señor Frogs brand. For Evo Sessions, he has assembled a team of some of the UK's most popular online personalities, in the hopes of defeating their rival team - Quickstars.

As Chip takes on a dual role as team owner and driver, he will be supported by fellow YouTuber Calfreezy, who takes on the role of Team Principal.

The first member of the team to be announced was Behzinga, a British YouTuber with over four million subscribers. Also known online as Ethan, he is best known as a member of the Sidemen - arguably YouTube's biggest group. Behzinga will compete under the colours of DS Penske in the upcoming EVO Sessions.

Next up in the Señor Frogs line up, are online personalities WillNE (Mahindra Racing) and Arthur TV (Envision Racing). The British duo frequently appear in content with Chip, their team leader, and have both developed audiences of dedicated fans who enjoy their creative and comedic content. Win or lose, it's guaranteed that they'll be creating entertainment on the Jeddah Corniche Circuit!

The final member of the team is Izzy Hammond, competing under the colours of Lola Yamaha ABT. Izzy is well known for the automotive content she creates on her channel, and her presenting role with DriveTribe. With her extensive experience of getting behind the wheel of unfamiliar vehicles, she will no doubt prove a valuable member of the Señor Frogs team.

QUICKSTARS

Every great team needs a great rival, and Señor Frogs have certainly met their match in Quickstars. Led by YouTuber Vikkstar, this line up of specialist creators with diverse racing experience and massive global audiences will be hoping to defeat their opponents on track.

The most-followed person on TikTok, Khaby Lame, is the first member of the Quickstars team. His short, humorous and silent reaction videos have made him a global superstar, but will he find a simple solution to mastering the GEN3 Evo? Khaby will represent Nissan for Formula E's EVO Sessions.

Joining Khaby Lame are creators Max Klymenko (Citroën Racing) and Stan Browney (Andretti). Max is a Ukranian-British online personality, best known for his viral TikTok series 'Career Ladder', in which he approaches ordinary people on the street and tries to guess their profession.

Stan Browney (often known online as just 'Browney') is a content creator, specialising in health content and entertaining fitness challenges, he'll be hoping that his work in the gym will give him an added advantage behind-the-wheel of the GEN3 Evo!

The final members of the Quickstars team are Emelia Hartford (Porsche) and JUCA (CUPRA KIRO). Emelia is an actress, driver and content producer, who gained global recognition (and a dedicated online following) for building custom cars. As a racer, we know she's quick, but will she be able to give Quickstars the edge in the head-to-head?

Completing the EVO Sessions line up is JUCA, a Mexican YouTuber and content creator, who has developed an online following through sharing automotive videos. JUCA took part in last year's EVO Sessions, receiving coaching from Formula E driver, Dan Ticktum, to prepare for the event.

Now you've met the teams, it's time to go racing.
