  • Renault Formula E Miami Bilanz DE
    PRESSEMITTEILUNG Urdorf, 17. März 2015 FORMEL E IN DEN USA FORMEL E SETZT MIAMI UNTER STROM – E.DAMS-RENAULT SIEGT BEIM US-DEBÜT Die pulsierende Metropole Miami war Schauplatz des fünften von elf ePrixs der FIA Formel E-Weltmeisterschaft 2014/2015. Das Rennen in der grössten Stadt Floridas unterstrich erneut, dass die 100% elektrisch angetriebenen Spark-Renault SRT_01E- Einsitzer atemberaubende Rennverläufe ermöglichen. In einer dramatischen Schlussphase auf dem Stadtkurs entlang der Biscayne Bay setzten sich Piloten durch, die sich den Energiehaushalt ihrer Elektrorenner besonders gut eingeteilt hatten. Es siegte Nicolas Prost für das Team e.dams-Renault vor dem US-amerikanischen Neueinsteiger Scott Speed (Andretti Autosport) und dem Deutschen Daniel Abt (Abt). Renault Sport unterstützt die lokal emissionsfreie Weltmeisterschaft seit ihrem Start als technischer Partner und wurde als einer von acht Herstellern ausgewählt, die für die kommende Saison einen eigenen Antriebsstrang für den Spark-Boliden konstruieren dürfen. Die Entwicklungsschritte am aktuellen Spark-Renault SRT_01E waren in Miami besonders deutlich zu erkennen: Die Rennwagen wurden über die gesamte Renndistanz am Limit bewegt, denn erstmals verlief ein Formel E-Lauf ohne Safety Car-Phase. Mit Miami startete die Formel E erneut in einer Metropole, die sich eine nachhaltige und klimafreundliche Stadtentwicklung auf die Fahnen geschrieben hat. Nach bewährtem Muster fanden Training, Qualifying und Rennen an einem Tag statt. Den besten Startplatz sicherte sich wie schon in Uruguay der Andretti-Pilot Jean-Éric Vergne. Der frühere Formel 1-Fahrer führte das Rennen nach perfektem Start zunächst an. Gegen Rennmitte nutzte dann der Brite Sam Bird (Virgin Racing) eine kleine Unachtsamkeit des Franzosen und übernahm die Spitze.
