I am beyond grateful for being presented such opportunities in motorsport throughout the master degree, the sport that I have been a huge fan of my whole life. I was given deeper and wider knowledge of many different fields in sports that bought up inspirational and interesting topics to think and learn from. I want to express my deep and sincere gratitude to my advisor, Professor Harald Klaus Dolles for giving me the opportunity to do my research on the sport that I love the most and supporting me with his invaluable guidelines throughout my research. I would like to thank him for sharing his knowledge and vision with me as I am honored to have had him as my supervisor. I want to express my appreciation towards my family who pushed me to choose and continue my education in a field of study that is interesting to me. I understand taking this step was important and huge especially that I moved to a country that speak a different language than me. Yet, they supported me and value my growth, nevertheless. A special thank you for my sister and nephew who were always there through video calls giving me the emotional support and the drive that I needed to complete this degree.

  • Understanding the Place-Specific Formation Processes of Sustainable Urban Experiments a Mixed Method Comparative Case Study of Formula E
    Master’s thesis - master Innovation Sciences Understanding the place-specific formation processes of sustainable urban experiments A mixed method comparative case study of Formula E July 27, 2021 Author: Marius Roeterdink, BSc Student number: 5673127 Contact: [email protected] Supervisor: Dr. J. Hoekman Second reader: Dr. ir. J.C.L Torrens Master’s Thesis – Master Innovation Sciences GEO4-2239X Faculty of Geosciences, Utrecht University 0 Place-specific formation processes of sustainable urban experiments Abstract Cities are increasingly recognized as frontrunners in the transition to a more sustainable society due to their assembly of technology, resources, population, culture, and economics. This is, amongst others, visible from a global increase in urban actors collaborating to experiment with new sustainable configurations. These so-called sustainable urban experiments, embedded in a broader niche, are not confined to a specific spatial context but will rather emerge in complex ‘place bundles’, forming a global niche. However, the formation of a global niche is interrelated with local experimentation and is thereby locally rooted. A prime example is sustainable motorsports experiment Formula E. Formula E operates on a global scale with numerous multinational companies involved but is set in urban environments and the local regional context arguably influences the formation of such events. In other words, Formula E is a global sustainable urban experiment which is locally embedded. Considerable variation in the way a sustainable urban experiment is formed locally is likely to exist. The objective of this study was to complement strategic niche management and sustainable transitions literature by understanding the specific place-specific factors under which global sustainable urban experiments are formed.

  • The MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV2 Concludes the 2016/2017 FIA Formula E Championship in Style in Montreal
    MEDIA INFORMATION 2016/2017 FIA Formula E Championship ePrix of Montreal – 11th and 12th rounds The MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV2 concludes the 2016/2017 FIA Formula E Championship in style in Montreal Lucas Di Grassi (Abt Schaeffler Audi Sport) claims the 2016/2017 Drivers’ crown The Teams’ title goes to Renault e.dams The last two races of the 2016/2017 FIA Formula E Championship were held in Montreal which was hosting the series for the first time. A big crowd turned out to watch the all-electric action in the Canadian city’s Ville-Marie district, and the majority of the drivers described the 2.75km, 14-turn street circuit – which formed a challenging rectangular loop around the landmark Maison de Radio-Canada building – as one of the best of the season. To encourage different strategies for the meeting’s two races, Saturday’s clash featured 35 laps, while Sunday’s lasted two laps longer as the teams and drivers battled to settle the outcome in their respective championships once and for all. The drivers were able to count on their MICHELIN Pilot Sport EV2 tyres which have risen successfully to the different challenges they have faced since their introduction at the start of Formula E’s third campaign. Their exceptional versatility has allowed the teams to cover an exceptionally wide spectrum of conditions and venues around the world without having to make any compromises in terms of either performance or longevity. “First of all, I would like to congratulate Lucas Di Grassi and his team Abt Schaeffler Audi Sport on their success in the 2016/2017 Drivers’ championship,” said Michelin Motorsport Director Pascal Couasnon.

  • FULLY ELECTRIC FIA FORMULA E CHAMPIONSHIP RETURNS to FS1 with MONACO Eprix
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Erik Arneson, FOX Sports Thursday, May 11, 2017 [email protected] FULLY ELECTRIC FIA FORMULA E CHAMPIONSHIP RETURNS TO FS1 WITH MONACO ePRIX Formula E is a ‘Statement Series’ Creating a Platform for the Development of Technologies that Can Benefit the World CHARLOTTE, NC – The fully electric Federation Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA) Formula E Championship, now in its third season, returns to FS1 on Saturday, May 13 (11:30 AM ET) with versatile motor sports broadcaster Bob Varsha hosting coverage from the Monaco ePrix. After defending Formula E champion Sebastien Buemi got off to a perfect start to the season, winning the championship’s first three events, the points race got a lot tighter and a little more interesting after Lucas Di Grassi’s bold victory in Mexico City trimmed Buemi’s lead to just five points heading into Monaco. The 1.097-mile, 12-turn Monaco ePrix circuit is a shortened version of the familiar Grand Prix course, as the Formula E version takes a hard right at Ste Devote rather than carrying on up the hill to Monte Carlo. From here, drivers run along the marina to the Nouvelle Chicane, where they make the hard right to rejoin the GP layout at the chicane at the exit of the tunnel. The remainder of the circuit follows the traditional route around the Swimming Pool, through Rascasse and Antony Noghes and back to the start/finish straight. Varsha, who will be joined by Martin Haven and Nicki Shields, with analysis from driver Mike Conway, offers insight into where Formula E fits on the motor sports spectrum and what we can look for this weekend from Monaco on FS1: FOX SPORTS: Monaco – like Le Mans, Daytona and Indianapolis, is synonymous with racing, so how important is it for Formula E to win over this city and its racing-knowledgeable fans long term and does racing in Monaco add to interest in Formula E? VARSHA: The Formula E mission is to demonstrate the potential of clean electric power in the form of motorsports entertainment in major cities, where emissions-free mobility is most needed.

  • Presentation 2017
    2017 INTRODUCTION Felix Rosenqvist is a Swedish racing driver, competing in the 2016-17 FIA Formula E Championship with Mahindra Racing. He is the 2015 FIA Formula 3 European champion. Felix Rosenqvist is the only driver in the history of Formula 3 to have won each of the accolades that make up the category’s “grand slam”: the European Championship (2015), the Grand Prix de Pau (2014), the Masters of Formula 3 (twice in 2011 and 2013) and the blue- riband Macau Grand Prix (twice in 2014 and 2015). In 2016, Rosenqvist dovetailed race-winning campaigns in the American Indy Lights series and Europe’s Blancpain GT Series Sprint Cup, while simultaneously racing in the top-level DTM touring car series with Mercedes-AMG. He also conducted a successful test in the Verizon IndyCar Series, America’s leading single-seater championship. Towards the end of 2016, Rosenqvist entered the Formula E arena after signing for Mahindra Racing, with the first round of the 2016-17 season taking place in Hong Kong on October 9. On his series debut, he set the fastest lap of the race, before going on to claim a headline- grabbing maiden pole position and podium in only his second start in the championship in Marrakesh, Morocco. 2017 sees Felix Rosenqvist intensify his pursuit of a maiden Formula E victory. He remains part of the Mercedes-AMG family.

  • Formula E: Audi Drivers Ready to Race in Marrakesh
    Audi MediaInfo Communications Motorsport Stefan Moser Tel: +49 841 89-35550 E-mail: [email protected] www.audi -mediacenter.com/en Formula E: Audi drivers ready to race in Marrakesh • Team Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler aims to return to the top • Telephone press conference with Daniel Abt on Wednesday, January 10 Neuburg a. d. Donau/Marrakesh, January 8, 2018 – Return to winning ways – this is Team Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler’s aim for the Formula E round in Marrakesh (Morocco). Following a difficult opener in Hong Kong, the two campaigners, Daniel Abt and Lucas di Grassi, are traveling to round three of the electric racing series’ season to be held on the African continent on January 13 with high motivation. From the streets of the Hong Kong metropolis to the northwest of Africa: Formula E, in which Audi is involved with a factory-backed commitment for the first time in the 2017/2018 season, is stopping in Morocco. This Saturday, ten teams and twenty drivers will be battling for points and trophies on Circuit International Automobile Moulay El Hassan on the second race weekend of the electric racing series. Team Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler has ambitious aims. “There is a very strong motivation within the team to bounce back, and that goes for us all,” says Team Principal Allan McNish. Daniel Abt had clinched his first Formula E victory in Hong Kong but was subsequently disqualified due to an administrative error of his team in filling out the vehicle’s passport. “Although we were not allowed to carry the big trophy home after Hong Kong we now know that the Audi e-tron FE04 is a car that can win races.
