On Saturday, 26 January, the fully electric racing series will hold the third round in Santiago de Chile, marking its first event in the Americas this season. After Daniel Abt and Lucas di Grassi have scored points in all of the races held to date this season, the drivers of the Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler team now intend to finish on the podium.
The race will be run at Parque O'Higgins. Covering an area of 750,000m2, it is the second largest park in the Chilean capital. The 2.348km track in the centre of Santiago with its long straights, hairpins and chicanes loop around the Movistar Arena. "The track layout looks exciting, but we'll only know exactly what awaits us at the circuit once we get there," says Team Principal Allan McNish.
The new location and unknown circuit have no bearing on the factory team's goal. "We know the potential of our Audi e-tron FE05, our team and our drivers - now we need to put all of it together into a package that will get us onto the podium," says McNish. "Races in South America are always very special anyway because the fans are enthusiastic and make for a great atmosphere."
