April 2012 – Vor einer eindrucksvollen Kulisse von 142.000 Zuschauern (am Wochenende) startete die DTM auf dem Hockenheimring mit einem turbulenten Rennen furios in ihre neue Ära. Der neue Audi A5 DTM startete von der Pole-Position und belegte nach 40 Runden den dritten Platz. Damit wiederholte sich die DTM-Geschichte: 1990 holte Hans-Joachim Stuck in Zolder beim ersten DTM-Rennen von Audi mit dem V8 quattro den dritten Platz – am Ende des Jahres wurde er Meister. 2004 belegte Mattias Ekström beim ersten Einsatz des Audi A4 DTM in Hockenheim ebenfalls den dritten Platz. Auch der Schwede holte am Ende den Titel. Mattias Ekström startete mit seinem Red Bull Audi A5 DTM auf dem Hockenheimring von der Pole-Position und übernahm am Start sofort die Führung, die er bis zur fünften Runde hielt, ehe er sich in Kurve zwei verbremste, hinter Jamie Green und kurz darauf auch hinter Gary Paffett zurückfiel. In der Folge konzentrierte sich der Schwede aus dem Audi Sport Team Abt Sportsline darauf, den dritten Platz zu sichern, der in diesem Jahr wie in der Formel 1 mit 15 Punkten belohnt wird. „Wen man von der Pole-Position startet, ist Platz drei sicherlich nicht das, was man sich erträumt“, erklärte Mattias Ekström.

    — ABB FIA Formula E World Championship Season 7 Press Kit — At ABB, we have always taken a sustainable approach to business. Sustainability is a key part of our company Purpose and of the value that we create. This starts with helping our customers reduce their emissions and preserve resources, which is where we make the biggest impact, and extends to our own operations, to our partners and suppliers, and the communities we serve. Our partnership with Formula E brings together two great teams that are pushing the boundaries of technology to support the shift to e-mobility. The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is a showcase for the world’s most advanced e-mobility technologies. This partnership, now in its fourth season, allows us to use this competitive race environment as a testbed to further develop our technology, while demonstrating the benefits of e-mobility to a global audience. Ultimately, it is helping us to drive progress towards a more sustainable future. Björn Rosengren CEO ABB — Working with COVID-19 restrictions in Season 7 Plans for the Season 7 race calendar continue to evolve amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, while the health and safety of the entire Formula E community, as well as the residents of E-Prix host cities, are of the utmost priority. As it is almost inevitable that attendance at E-Prix will remain restricted, ABB is developing virtual experiences that will allow guests and key customers to enjoy much of the race weekend experience, even if they are unable to attend in person. In addition to a dedicated microsite filled with news and content from the event and a link to view the on-track action, ABB will provide a multi-media experience focusing on the series itself and the connected topics of sustainability, mobility and energy efficiency, featuring presentations and contributions in collaboration with ABB’s partners.
