The 2021 Puebla ePrix (formally the 2021 CBMM Niobium Puebla E-Prix) was a pair of Formula E electric car races held at the Autódromo Miguel E. Abed in the town of Amozoc near Puebla, Mexico on 19 and 20 June 2021. With usual Mexico City ePrix venue Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez being used as a temporary hospital for COVID-19 patients,[1] a replacement had to be found, making this the inaugural running of a competitive Formula E event at the track, and the sixth in the country. It marked the eighth and ninth rounds of the 2020–21 Formula E season.

The first race was won by Lucas di Grassi ahead of his teammate René Rast and Edoardo Mortara, after pole-sitter and original race winner Pascal Wehrlein was disqualified due to a technical infraction.[2] Edoardo Mortara won the second race to claim the championship lead, with Nick Cassidy and Oliver Rowland rounding out the podium.[3]

Notes:

  • ^1  – Joel Eriksson and Sérgio Sette Câmara received a 20-place grid penalty each for changing the inverters in their Dragon / Penske Autosport cars.[7][8] As they didn't qualify high enough to drop all 20 positions, they had to serve a drive-through penalty at the start of the race.[9][10]
