The Air Race E-ARE is a race of electric powered aircraft, side by side on an oval circuit. Inspired by the Formula 1 car race, such races have been held for over seventy years on conventional-powered racing cars. In Air Race E, only electric racing aircraft can fly. There are teams like in both branches of Formula 1 racing, as there is already E. The teams are building racing machines that can fly at 450 km / h. Max 8 aircraft bypass 10-meter-high columns on a 1.5-kilometer oval runway.
