Audi gives talents an opportunity in Formula E
Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale.
A premiere in #formulae: In the #racing series’ first rookie test, Nico Müller and Nyck de Vries are going to drive the Audi e-tron FE04 for the first time. The test day is scheduled for January 14, 2018, one day after the next #formulae race in Marrakesh. With the rookie test #formulae and the FIA are giving the registered teams an opportunity to familiarize young drivers with the electric #racing series
The rules are strict, permitting only drivers without an E-license to test. They have never contested a #formulae race before. Participating for #Audi will be DTM campaigner Nico Müller (25, Switzerland) and Nyck de Vries (22, Netherlands). “This mid-season test is a unique opportunity. Nico and Nyck are going to drive our e-tron FE04 for a number of test kilometers which will give them a good initial impression of the car and the things that are special in #formulae,” says Allan McNish, Team Principal of #Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler. “Nico already belongs to the #Audi family and we’ve been closely watching Nyck’s career in recent years. Both have their roots in single-seater #racing and will no doubt manage well.”
For Nico Müller, who competes in the DTM in #Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline, the test makes a dream come true. “I’ve been watching #formulae as a fan for quite some time but, unfortunately, only on television,” says the Swiss. When I visit ABT Sportsline the #formulae race car is often parked alongside my DTM car – that’s when I fancy driving it, so I’m all the more excited about this opportunity.”
Müller contested his last single-seater race in Formula Renault 3.5 in 2013 and has since been active in touring and sports car #racing. To Nyck de Vries the test might come more naturally. The youngster has spent his entire career to date in kart and single-seater #racing, having most recently competed in Formula 2 as part of the Formula 1 supporting program. The rookie test will be held on Sunday, January 14, 2018, at Circuit International Automobile Moulay el Hassan in Marrakesh. Reigning champion #lucasdigrassi will be on hand as instructor and provide the two newcomers with valuable advice.
