ottobre 06, 2016 - Audi
Formula E under the banner of the Four Rings for the first time
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
While the #audi DTM team is preparing for a thrilling finale at the Hockenheimring, the new #formulae season begins on Sunday, October 9. The electric race cars of Team #abtschaeffler #audi Sport will compete in the Chinese metropolis of Hong Kong, under the banner of the Four Rings for the first time.
On the road to a fully factory-backed commitment, #audi is using the 2016/2017 season to learn more about the world’s first fully electric #racing series and to prepare for the 2017/2018 season. The former Formula 1 driver and Le Mans winner Allan McNish has provisionally assumed responsibility for coordinating the #formulae project at #audi Sport in Neuburg, and will be on site at the season opener alongside the Deputy Head of #audimotorsport, Dieter Gass.
Team #abtschaeffler #audi Sport has prepared intensively for the new #formulae season, and has thoroughly tested the #abtschaeffler FE02 electric race car. After the completion of the official tests at Donington Park on September 7, above all dyno tests were on the agenda. Both the team’s drivers, Daniel Abt and Lucas di Grassi, practiced on the near three-kilometer-long track in the Hong Kong harbor in the simulator and delivered valuable information for setting up the car and the software to the team’s engineers.
“Similar to the DTM, the #formulae race cars are homologated and cannot be altered during the season,” says Head of #audimotorsport Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich. “At the same time, the software, which is so crucial to energy management in #formulae, can be constantly worked on. In this field, we have lots of experience from the FIA World Endurance Championship which we can use to support the team.”
In mid-September, the #formulae organization loaded the team’s four race cars onto a plane and shipped them to Hong Kong. They were delivered to the circuit this morning and handed back. In total, the team has sent about eight tons of material on the #formulae world tour.
