FORMULA E MAKES HISTORY WITH FIRST RACE IN INDIA – HOW TO WATCH THE 2023 GREENKO HYDERABAD E-PRIX IMMEDIATE RELEASE ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will race in India for the first time this Saturday, 11 February2023 Greenko Hyderabad E-Prix takes place on a street circuit constructed in the heart of the cityDriver Pascal Wehrlein leads the Drivers’ championship after Porsche power dominated the first three races for the all-new GEN3 race car – the fastest, lightest, most powerful and efficient electric race car ever builtLucas di Grassi and Oliver Rowland set for the loudest cheers as Mahindra Racing competes on home soil for the first time in Formula EHYDERABAD, India. Thurs. 9 Feb. 2023: Formula E will make history this Saturday (11 February) as the ABB FIA Formula E Championship comes to India for the first time with the 2023 Greenko Hyderabad E-Prix, Round 4 of the 16-race season.The 2.835km street circuit, constructed around the shores of the Hussain Sagar lake by the NTR Gardens, will see the first top-tier FIA World Championship motorsport in the country for a decade and will become India’s first elite electric motor racing event.Pascal Wehrlein, TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team driver, moved to the top of the Drivers’ standings after winning both races in the double-header in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, thanks to an overtaking masterclass.But 2016/17 Formula E champion, Lucas di Grassi, and teammate Oliver Rowland are expected to attract the biggest cheers from passionate fans in the grandstand in the first home race for their team, Mahindra Racing. Di Grassi already has silverware to his name this season, sealed on his debut for Mahindra at the Mexico City season-opener, and no driver has been on the podium more than his nine in Asia.Lucas di Grassi, driver, Mahindra Racing, said:“It is important for us to have a good race in India – not only for the fans, but for the championship as well. It’s a new track for us, as it is for everyone up and down the grid. It needs to be a good weekend for us. We are going to try very hard and push to the limit to get the best out of the car. We can’t wait to see all the Indian fans out in force to support us and we want to give them a good show.”Oliver Rowland, driver, Mahindra Racing, said:“Heading into Hyderabad we know where we need to improve following a difficult weekend in Diriyah. Having the home fans behind us will add to the motivation we have racing on the team’s home ground. We know they will be fully behind us and supporting us, which will give us the extra push to perform well.”AS IT STANDSIf Mahindra Racing are to take to the top step of the podium in Hyderabad, they will have two Porsche-powered teams in TAG Heuer Porsche and Avalanche Andretti to overpower, based on current form. They have dominated Formula E so far in Season 9, with the Stuttgart manufacturer’s 99X Electric Gen3 finishing one-two in every race so far.Andretti’s Jake Dennis set the benchmark in Mexico City with the first win of the new GEN3 era, with Pascal Wehrlein following him home. The two fought hard in Rounds 2 and 3 in Diriyah, the last time out, but the German got the better of Dennis in both races to take the top prize and a dominant win-double in Saudi Arabia and the standings lead, while Porsche still narrowly trail customer Andretti in the Teams table by two points.Jake Hughes (NEOM McLaren Formula E Team) sealed a maiden Julius Baer Pole Position last time out. The rookie has scored in all three rounds so far this season and has the best qualifying record of anyone on the grid. He couldn’t quite convert to silverware in the race but experienced teammate René Rast needed no second invitation to seal the team’s first podium in Formula E in Round 3.Jaguar TCS Racing also attracted attention in Diriyah, with a resurgent Sam Bird returning to the podium after an uncharecteristically barren spell for the veteran of more than 100 Formula E races. No driver has won more than the Briton in Asia either, with Bird’s four the benchmark – two in Diriyah, one in Putrajaya, Malaysia and another in Hong Kong.Before the season, some expected overtaking to be tough in the new GEN3 race car, with braking zones shortened thanks to the significant regen boost of the new car’s double powertrain. That theory was blown away in Diriyah with some 36 moves outside of ATTACK MODE position changes completed over two races.Round 2 winner Wehrlein steered from ninth to the top step of the podium and Dennis followed with his own drive through the pack from 11th to second. On just three occasions has a driver won from further down the grid than Wehrlein managed and it was the first time consecutive Formula E races had been won from outside the top four since Zurich and New York City back in Season 4.WHEN TO WATCHFree Practice 1 for the 2023 Greenko Hyderabad E-Prix Round 4 gets underway at 16:30 IST (11:00 GMT) on Friday 10 February.Free Practice 2 follows at 08:10 IST on Saturday 11 February with qualifying from 10:40 IST.

LONDON, UK. Wed. 8 Feb. 2023 – Formula E has reimagined its entire music and sound suite used across broadcast and digital channels, inspired by the power of electric acceleration and incorporating the sound of the fastest, lightest, most powerful and efficient electric race car ever built – the GEN3.

The new sonic identity is part of an overall refresh of the Formula E brand, unveiled at the 2023 Hankook Mexico City E-Prix in January, and aligned to the beginning of the GEN3 era in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.  

The GEN3 is the third-generation Formula E race car and represents a huge leap in technology that pushes the boundaries of EV development. Incorporating the unique sound of the GEN3 into the new sonic identity was a key creative objective.

Tom Player of Lost Track Productions, working alongside Alex Bingham of sound design company Machine, was commissioned by Formula E to develop the full music and sound suite. They attended private GEN3 testing sessions by two teams in the championship – NIO333 Racing and Mahindra Racing – where they recorded audio of the race cars being pushed to the limit ahead of their debut in Mexico City.

The recordings were then developed into a range of sonic assets and embedded into the revitalised music and SFX package used across broadcast and digital content. The all-new soundtrack, including broadcast titles music, was composed by Tom Player and recorded live with a 55-piece orchestra at Abbey Road Studios.

The music accompanies a new broadcast intro titles film produced for Formula E by production partner Aurora Media Worldwide in collaboration with The Berry. The film features drivers in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship including defending champion Stoffel Vandoorne, Mitch Evans, António Félix Da Costa and Jake Dennis with CGI-footage of the new GEN3 car racing through some of this season’s host cities including Cape Town, São Paulo, Monaco and London.

Channel 4 viewers in the UK will experience the new title sequence for the first time on linear TV this Saturday with the live broadcast of the 2023 Greenko Hyderabad E-Prix from 9am. The titles can also be viewed at:  https://youtu.be/S-SD_4-zzrM

Henry Chilcott, Chief Marketing Officer, Formula E, said:

“This has been a year of renewal for Formula E – new GEN3 race car, new teams, new look and new sound. The music score and soundscape sets the tone for the entire fan experience. Working with Lost Track Productions and Machine Sound, our ambition was to create a bold new anthem for our sport as part of our newly launched brand identity.  The library of music composed by Tom Player is designed to work like a film score evoking different emotions to enhance the race weekend experience from opening broadcast titles right the way through to the live podium celebrations.”

The new soundtrack has been released as a 7-track album, titled Change. Accelerated (The Official Formula E Soundtrack) and is available on all major streaming platforms including Spotify and Apple Music.

FORMULA E DRIVES EVOLUTION IN LIVE BROADCAST COVERAGE OF MAJOR SPORTS EVENTS IMMEDIATE RELEASE LONDON, UK. Tues. 7 Feb. 2023 – Formula E is pioneering a new broadcast production facility in London that delivers state-of-the-art coverage of its live motor racing action from around the world while reducing the environmental impact typical of major live international sports events on TV.Now in its ninth season, the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will race in Hyderabad this Saturday, the first time the series has visited India. The race will air live in the UK on Channel 4 and Eurosport from 9am GMT.Beginning this season, the live international race feed distributed to more than 40 broadcasters and airing in more than 150 countries will be produced remotely from The Production Centre in London, a new state-of-the-art production facility developed by Gravity Media and located at the same address as the former BBC Television Centre in White City.The innovative production setup allows for the seamless remote integration of replay, audio and graphics into the live programme output, as well as a resilient disaster recovery system to ensure the broadcast feed remains uninterrupted in the event of technical difficulties.A new multi-year partnership with Gravity Media, the leading media and broadcast company, alongside Formula E’s existing editorial partner, Aurora Media Worldwide, means the live broadcast feed of Formula E’s international races will be produced at Gravity Media’s Production Centre in London instead of a temporary broadcast facility installed at each race location.Formula E is unique in world motorsport for racing on street circuits created on public roads in the heart of world cities to encourage the adoption of EV vehicles. Hyderabad will be the 27th world city to host a Formula E race, the 104th in the history of the series.This year, the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will race in 11 world cities, more than any other season. Cape Town, São Paulo, Berlin, Monaco, Jakarta, Portland, Rome and London will follow Hyderabad while Mexico City and Diriyah in Saudi Arabia hosted the opening races of the season last month. Live broadcast coverage of an international sports event is typically an environmentally-intensive process with staff and equipment travelling by air. Centralising the majority of live editing and production at the 50,000 sq.ft facility in London significantly reduces the impact of staff travel and shipping of heavy production equipment.Formula E has developed an on-board camera system installed on each race car with a live team radio feed that is considered the best-in-class in the motorsport industry. More than 200 cameras cover each race from every angle giving viewers an immersive, informative, action-driven experience. Aarti Dabas, Chief Media Officer, Formula E, said:“At Formula E, as the world’s first net zero carbon sport since inception, we are constantly challenging ourselves to show how delivering world-class sports entertainment and maintaining industry-leading sustainable practices can co-exist without compromise. Our technology and broadcast teams have worked closely with Gravity Media and Aurora Media Worldwide to help us achieve this. The London-based facility and new approach to presenting Formula E coverage helps us stay true to our vision of accelerating human progress and encouraging the adoption of EV transportation while entertaining millions of viewers around the world.”  Ed Tischler, EMEA Managing Director, Gravity Media, said:“We are thrilled to be working with Formula E as the first partner to use our brand new, next-generation Gravity Media Production Centre in White City. By taking the bold, innovative step of relocating TV production from a temporary facility in a remote world city to London, we are changing the game for how major global sports events are covered on television. Our new Production Centre located in the heart of White City in The Westworks building will house a growing team of creative and innovative media specialists and we hope to encourage more major sports to adopt a similar approach for TV coverage of their live events.”Eleven teams and 22 drivers compete in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. Two iconic names in world motorsport – McLaren and Maserati – line up on the Formula E grid for the first time this season.As well as the innovative approach to broadcast production for TV viewers around the world, this season also saw Formula E and the FIA introduce the fastest, lightest, most powerful, and efficient electric race car ever built – the GEN3.Capable of a 200mph (322kph) top speed, the GEN3 is 53kg lighter than the previous Gen2 model with a smaller chassis optimised for street racing. An additional front powertrain adds 250kW to the 350kW at the rear, more than doubling the regenerative capacity of the previous car to 600kW, with more than 40% of the energy used in-race regenerated from braking.The carbon footprint of the GEN3 has been measured from the design phase to inform all reduction measures taken to reduce environmental impact, while all unavoidable emissions are offset as part of Formula E’s net zero carbon commitment. The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is the first and only sport in the world to be certified net zero carbon since inception.Linen and recycled carbon fibre are being used in GEN3 bodywork construction for the first time in a formula car, featuring recycled carbon fibre from retired Gen2 cars and reducing the overall amount of virgin carbon fibre used. This reduces the carbon footprint of the production of the GEN3 bodywork more than 10%. All waste carbon fibre will be reused for new applications through adoption of an innovative process from the aviation industry.

LONDON, UK. Wed. 1 Feb. 2023 – Formula E and international sports and lifestyle brand, New Era, today announced a multi-year global licensing deal for a range of fan headwear products with New Era supplying the official podium cap for the first time in motorsport.

The Hankook Tire podium cap was unveiled at the 2023 Hankook Mexico E-Prix where more than 40,000 fans saw Jake Dennis (Avalanche Andretti Formula E team) win the first race of Formula E’s GEN3 era and become the first racing driver to take the top step of the podium wearing a New Era 9FORTY cap.

A range of five further caps featuring Formula E’s refreshed brand identity across New Era’s iconic 9FORTY, 9FIFTY, and Trucker silhouettes will launch from Spring 2023. The consumer range will be available to purchase across New Era’s international distribution platforms alongside Formula E’s official ecommerce channels and retail stores at races.

New Era and Formula E will also collaborate on bespoke and limited-edition styles, such as unique designs for landmark races and a championship edition. Aligned with Formula E’s sustainability commitments, the New Era range will also utilise REPREVE® fabric – the world’s leading recycled performance fibre – where plastic bottles are transformed into a technical yarn used for performance-ready headwear.

Jamie Reigle, Chief Executive Officer, Formula E, said:

“We are excited to make history with New Era and go all the way to the top step of the winner’s podium for the first time in motorsport with the Hankook Tire podium cap. New Era is an industry leader and one of the most recognisable and iconic lifestyle brands. This new partnership showcases the strength of our global licensing offer while giving fans the opportunity to share their passion for Formula E with a premium fashion product featuring our refreshed brand identity.”

Paul Gils, Vice President EMEA, New Era, said:

“We are excited to be partnering with Formula E in 2023. As changemakers in our respective industries, we are thrilled to see Formula E designs on New Era’s most renowned silhouettes in new and exciting materials. Formula E marks another step in New Era’s presence in motorsport.”

Nueva York, Estados Unidos, 3 de febrero del 2023.- El Oracle Red Bull Racing lanzó hoy la campaña 2023 del equipo en la ciudad de Nueva York, a través de un programa en vivo transmitido a más de 30 países de todo el mundo y transmitido por miles de fanáticos en todo el mundo.

El momento consolida una primicia en la Fórmula Uno con Oracle Red Bull Racing convirtiéndose en el primer equipo de F1 en lanzar su temporada en los EE. UU.

Después de ganar los campeonatos mundiales de pilotos y constructores en 2022, el equipo produjo una experiencia que puso a los fanáticos en el centro del lanzamiento, en cualquier parte del mundo en la que se encontraran.

A través de The Paddock, los fanáticos tuvieron la oportunidad exclusiva de asistir en persona en Estados Unidos o transmitir el evento en sus canales, donde el director y director ejecutivo del equipo, Christian Horner, y los pilotos Max Verstappen, Sergio “Checo” Pérez y Daniel Ricciardo presentaron una serie de momentos únicos.

El lanzamiento se centró en el RB19 y los fanáticos vieron por primera vez el automóvil 2023. Llevando el auto nuevo un paso más allá, se reveló que los fanáticos tendrán la oportunidad de diseñar tres libreas personalizadas este año, para cada carrera en los EE. UU.

Impulsada por la tecnología del socio principal del equipo, Oracle, la campaña “Make Your Mark” significará que las ilustraciones de los fanáticos decoran el RB19 cuando el automóvil se presenta en Miami, Austin y Las Vegas.

El panel de jueces para la librea ganadora estará encabezado por Christian e incluirá representantes de Oracle, socio principal del equipo, Bybit y Socio tecnológico, Mobil 1. El artista de renombre mundial, el Sr. Doodle, recibió un auto de exhibición RB14 como lienzo para dar inicio a la competencia, creando una obra de arte exclusiva.

“The Doodle Bull”, que también está firmado por Max y Checo, será subastado por The Auction Collective, en colaboración con Christie’s, a través de una subasta en línea cronometrada. Una parte de las ganancias se destinará al socio benéfico oficial del equipo, Wings for Life.

La temporada 2023 ve una nueva imagen para Oracle Red Bull Racing cuando el equipo presentó su Castore Teamwear para 2023: los fanáticos tuvieron la oportunidad exclusiva de participar en una sesión de fotos de Castore con Max y Checo recientemente, la pieza central del lanzamiento del kit.

Los aficionados también pudieron echar un vistazo a la nueva gama de gorras y calzado del equipo, desarrollada por los pioneros New Era & APL con sede en EE. UU.

Llevando el evento a una conclusión culminante, el equipo anunció que, a partir de 2026, Red Bull Powertrains se asociará con la icónica marca estadounidense de automovilismo Ford. Red Bull Powertrains y Ford trabajarán juntos en el desarrollo de la unidad de potencia híbrida de próxima generación que suministrará motores tanto a Oracle Red Bull Racing como a Scuderia AlphaTauri a partir de 2026.

Christian Horner, director del equipo:

“En Oracle Red Bull Racing siempre nos esforzamos por hacer las cosas primero y de manera diferente. Esta es la primera vez que lanzamos nuestra temporada fuera del Reino Unido y la primera vez que un equipo de F1 la lanza en los EE. UU. No se puede ignorar el crecimiento de nuestro deporte en Estados Unidos, hay más de 50 millones de fanáticos de la F1 en los EE. UU., de los cuales el 72% nos sigue, y la forma en que los fanáticos han acogido a nuestro equipo aquí ha sido muy especial de ver. Oracle Red Bull Racing estará en Estados Unidos más que nunca en 2023, no solo compitiendo, sino también organizando Red Bull Showruns y el primer viaje por carretera liderado por un equipo de F1 en Estados Unidos, el Grand Tauro de EU, a finales de este año. También queríamos celebrar y dar la bienvenida a Ford en su país de origen, ya que se convertirán en el nuevo socio de Red Bull Powertrains a partir de 2026. Esta será una verdadera asociación técnica estratégica; Ford ayudará con la batería y la tecnología híbrida y mucho más para mantener al equipo por delante de la competencia. Ya estoy muy entusiasmado con las posibilidades que esta asociación nos ofrecerá a ambos a nivel mundial”.

Checo Pérez

“Creo que ha crecido tanto el apoyo para nuestro equipo en EU que nos estamos convirtiendo en equipo favorito de los EU. El reto es seguir progresando y ser mejores de lo que fuimos el año pasado y eso será muy difícil, pero estamos en el camino, Vamos a buscar tener una temporada increíble y mejorar lo que hicimos el pasado año. Nos espera un año muy largo y sabemos que hay que estar al 100 por ciento en el equipo para lograr en lo personal un gran campeonato”.

Ciudad de México, a 31 de enero de 2023.F1 2023: Nuevas reglas, nuevos pilotos, nuevos jefes, más emocionesSeis de las 10 escuderías tendrán nuevas alineaciones, con tres debutantes y un regreso muy esperado.Con 23 Grandes Premios y seis carreras Sprint, será la temporada más larga en la historia de la serie.La temporada de 2023 de Formula 1 no ha comenzado y ya se anticipa un desborde de emociones. Previo a las pruebas de pretemporada en Baréin, el campeonato anunció nuevas reglas que mejorarán el desempeño aerodinámico de los monoplazas al eliminar el marsopeo, además habrá tres debutantes en la parrilla, seis nuevas alineaciones y nuevos jefes de equipo.  A todos estos cambios se suma el doble de carreras Sprint que en 2022 y una fecha más, para un total de 23 Grandes Premios.  Estos son algunos de los puntos más importantes que debemos tener en cuenta previo a las pruebas de pretemporada que celebrará Formula 1 del 23 al 25 de febrero en Sakhir:Tres novatos. A pesar de que Nyck de Vries tomó parte del Gran Premio de Italia en 2022 (en sustitución de Alex Albon, por enfermedad) sigue siendo novato para la categoría y será titular en AlphaTauri. Al neerlandés se le suma el australiano Oscar Piastri, también excampeón de Formula 2, quien debutará en McLaren. El último de los recién llegados es el estadounidense Logan Sargeant, quien es el nuevo piloto de Williams.  Un regreso muy esperado. Aunque está muy lejos de ser novato, el alemán Nico Hülkenberg verá en 2023 su regreso como piloto titular a la Formula 1 de la mano de Haas. Luego de manejar para Williams, Force India, Sauber, Renault, Racing Point y Aston Martin, Nico será coequipero del también experimentado Kevin Magnussen. En Baréin, durante la primera carrera del año, el germano buscará romper una marca nada grata: 184 carreras sin obtener un podio.  Nuevas alineaciones. Además de la llegada de estos cuatro pilotos, habrá cambios en las alineaciones de Aston Martin y Alpine. Fernando Alonso llega al equipo inglés para ser coequipero de Lance Stroll, en sustitución del tetracampeón Sebastian Vettel, quien se retiró al final de la campaña de 2022; mientras que Pierre Gasly será compañero de Esteban Ocon, en el asiento que dejó el español Alonso en Alpine.  Nuevos jefes de equipo. Así como hay cambios de pilotos en la mayoría de las escuderías, también habrá nuevos directores. Tras la salida de Mattia Binotto de Ferrari, la Scuderia eligió a Fred Vasseur como su sucesor. El francés estuvo seis años en Alfa Romeo. A su vez, esta escudería firmó a Alessandro Alunni. Por su parte, Zak Brown, mandamás de McLaren, ascendió a Andrea Stella como su nuevo director deportivo. El último cambio en directores se dio en Williams tras el despido de Jost Capito, quien será sustituido por James Vowles, exdirector de estrategia de Mercedes.  El doble de carreras Sprint. Las carreras sabatinas pasarán de tres a seis. Las sedes con entrega de puntos en la carrera de 100 kilómetros serán: Azerbaiyán, Austria, Bélgica, Catar, Austin y Sao Paulo.  Nuevas regulaciones. Se presentan cuatro cambios mayores en aerodinámica: Por un lado se elevarán tanto la altura de piso como la garganta del difusor, cuyo borde será más rígido, además de incluir un sensor para medir el marsopeo.  Por otra parte, se fortalecerá el “roll hoop” para brindar mayor protección a la cabeza de los pilotos en caso de una volcadura (como la que sufrió Guanyu Zhou en Inglaterra). El peso del auto disminuye en dos kilos (de 798 a 796); aumenta la superficie de los espejos retrovisores (de 150 mm a 200 mm).  Con el aumento de carreras sprint, habrá más “parc fermé” (parque cerrado) y menos opciones de ajustar la puesta a punto para el Gran Premio. Se redujo también el tiempo de trabajo en paddock entre sesiones y crece el “toque de queda” de miércoles y jueves. Todos estos cambios y novedades prometen una de las temporadas de Formula 1 más peleadas de la historia y, por ello, los aficionados del deporte motor tienen altas expectativas  para esta campaña y lo que se pueda presentar en el FORMULA 1 GRAN PREMIO DE LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO 2023 Presentado por Heineken. La mejor F1ESTA está de regreso.
