Editorial notes & sources

Event dates, admission conditions and GEN4 format reviewed 13 October 2026. Seller pages contain mixed historical timetable labels and conflicting starting prices; exact session times and unresolved current prices are withheld. The SAR 115/195 figures are the championship’s 21 September announcement, not product-specific checkout prices. December gate assignments, accessible approaches and event transport remain unconfirmed. City-place evidence is retained from the shared Jeddah library; December availability must be checked with each operator.

Season 13 lineups reviewed 13 October 2026. Dated announcements take precedence over Season 12 driver and team-directory labels. Five seats remain unannounced; the official September lineup table is supplemented by October signings and Wehrlein’s updated GEN4 profile.

Driver career totals and previous-season results are retained with their observed edition. Jake Hughes’s latest career page covers 2024–25; rookies have no invented Formula E race statistics. Historical car numbers are not confirmations of December 2026 numbers.

Team career counters are withheld where predecessor-entry totals or title counts conflict with the current team identity. Previous-season team results remain separately labelled.

Fortescue Zero’s announced entry is subject to FEO and FIA approval. The Lola name follows the championship’s September Season 13 table; its final entrant identity, operational partners and driver pairing require the final entry list.

Car names are published only where GEN4-specific evidence establishes them. Previous-generation models are not carried forward. Nationality and dates of birth follow driver profiles; Zak O’Sullivan’s date of birth is supplemented from Wikipedia.

Official photographs and logos are retained as research links only; no new driver, car or team images are published by this bundle.

Editorial spending allowances, not dated hotel quotes. Ticket estimates allow for category and checkout differences; luxury tier upgrades accommodation and dining, not admission to EMOTION Club.
