Vielleicht's Ideal Near-ish Future Formula E Calendar - 2019 Edition
Went a bit mad, been putting together some of these over the course of the season. Some most likely unrealistic, but assuming everything were to magically work out, this would be my modified FE calendar for a few years time. Because why not.
Starting in October/November and running through to July:
Round 1 - Dubai
Warm start to the season, wildly ideal in it's placement. But hey ho anything could happen.

Round 2 - Surfers Paradise
An absolute classic, deserves a single seater return. A popular choice, I'd imagine.

Round 3 - Santiago de Chile
The country will play a major part in the EV supply chain so an ePrix should be on the cards for a while. Slight modifications to the O'Higgens Park circuit which debuted this season.
Round 4 - Sao Paulo
Brazil has supposed to have had a race ever since Rio was listed on the preliminary calendar for the inaugural season. Two Brazilian champions later and no such race has materialized. A shorter version of the IndyCar layout was expected for season 5 and may make a return yet.

Round 5 - Mexico City
That crowd. Formula E shouldn't abandon Mexico if it can help it. Perhaps a medium version of the famous autodrome would offer the best of both worlds.

Round 6 - Long Beach
The full layout this time. One of the best street circuits in the world, in my opinion. Not sure how this would tie in with the IndyCar Grand Prix, but this is an idealised calendar so I'm going with it.

Round 7 - Tokyo
Seems like a logical addition to the calendar if it can be done. Here's a possible layout around the Olympic Park.

Round 8 - Beijing
Don't panic, I would want a new layout. But the scene of the first ever ePrix deserves a second chance. Using some of the sweeping sections of the original circuit, something like this maybe.

Round 9 - Marrakesh
Continuity is always welcome in a calendar, and keeping Marrakesh wouldn't be such a bad plan. Maybe one or two circuit modifications wouldn't go unmissed, such as this one.

Round 10 - Barcelona
The return of Monjuïc to the world of motorsport. A near direct revival of the original with an added chicane around the roundabout. The city that is slowly detoxing of cars and embracing walking and cycling may benefit from an FE race.

Round 11 - Rome
The current venue was one of the best attended of all in it's first season. FE should build on that and go back. I think the layout could do with a but of streamlining from all those twisty sections, so here's my proposal.

Round 12 - Monaco
The full layout at last.

Round 13 - Berlin
Tempelhof would be the last remaining Season 1 venue, assuming some expansion could happen in due course to fit with increasing pace of FE cars, perhaps this would suffice for an old friend of FE.

Round 14 - Bern
I'm assuming this layout will be good. It looks spectacular but time will tell when they get on track later this season. So I have included it here anyway. Bringing racing back to Switzerland is among FE's most impressive achievements to date.

Round 15 - London
Unfinished business. A return to London is a known target for FE. Here's my idea of how an Olympic Park circuit may look.

Round 16 - New York
Hear me out! Now it's established FE should hold on to this world famous city. Take as much time as it needs to expand, improve or move the circuit. The city has too much prestige to leave it. Perhaps future track changes could reconcile some doubters.

Round 17 - Vancouver
A revival from CART history this time in the form of the 1990s layout in Vancouver. In my opinion this would be a great end to the season.
