Another round of E Prix race will take place this evening on the necklace road. The Traffic around Hussain Sagar is being diverted into different routes.
It is slightly drizzling in Hyderabad today.
As a curtain raiser of the big-ticket Formula E Championship slated to be held on the banks of Hyderabad’s iconic Hussain Sagar lake in February next year, the city is gearing up for another prominent race today.
The city of Hyderabad is set to host the first and final rounds of the Indian Racing League on December 10-11 which, authorities say, will be a precursor to the Formula E Prix slated for February 11 next year.
The main Roads surrounding the Hussainsagar lake are being re-laid, corners modified, and medians removed. A new gallery for spectators is also set up at NTR Marg.
With 22 cars racing and cornering at breathtaking speeds during the Formula E Prix, the safety of the drivers and spectators will be of paramount importance.
All the safety equipment such as Tecpro barriers, debris fences and other related track infrastructure is being built around the tracks to address stringent safety requirements. This too will already be in place during the IRL races.
