Audi comes to Formula E finale with clear goals
10 Jul 2018|969 views
Season four is ending the way it started about seven months ago in Hong Kong with a double-header weekend. This means double action for the fans trackside and on TV and double chances for victories and points for the drivers. That's good for Audi who is second in the teams' classification with 186 points and intend to attack in the 'Big Apple.'
"During the difficult start to the season, we kept cool and faith in ourselves," says McNish. "We worked hard both on the race track and back home in Neuburg - even though it will be difficult, we now go to New York with a clear attitude and focus on the championship."
"That Formula E holds a race in the centre of the city is simply fantastic," says Daniel Abt who has won the races in Mexico City and Berlin this season. "In terms of racing, the New York E-Prix was a very nerve-wracking event for me last season. On the first race day, things were going pretty well for me before, while lying in third position, I started coasting shortly before the finish due to a common part issue which was not our fault. So, I still have a score to settle with New York."
His teammate, Lucas di Grassi, is traveling to the U.S.A with tailwind from his first victory this season in Zurich. That this will be his last race weekend in car number one for the time being does not bother him. "We showed our true colors in the second half of the season and scored more points than any other team," says di Grassi, adding with a smile. "If you summarised the races in Rome, Paris, Berlin and Zurich, we'd be European champions now!"
Rounds 11 and 12 of the 2017/2018 ABB FIA Formula E Championship will start on Saturday, 14th July, at 3:30am and on Sunday, 15th July, at 3:00am Singapore time.
