Mouser-backed Formula E Racing Team readies for London
Mouser Electronics, the New Product Introduction (NPI) pioneer empowering innovation, is excited to watch the DS PENSKE Formula E Racing Team as they look to end the season on a high note for the final races of the season at the London E-Prix doubleheader, on 29—30 July 2023.
The London races feature a track that weaves its way inside and outside the exhibition centre and around the historical heartland of the Royal Docklands. The ExCel Circuit is motorsport’s only indoor and outdoor race circuit, made possible by the emissions-free nature of the cars.
The track features 20 turns with a total length of 2.09KM. Drivers and teams will have to deal with two different surface types: the smooth indoor surface with more grip and the abrasive asphalt on the outdoor portion, plus elevation and lighting changes, presenting unique challenges.
Team drivers for the race are two-time Formula E Champion Jean-Éric Vergne and Season 8 Champion Stoffel Vandoorne. The DS PENSKE Formula E Racing Team is currently fifth in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, with 153 points.
Mouser is supporting the DS PENSKE team for the globe-trekking 2023 season, in collaboration with TTI, and valued manufacturers Molex and KYOCERA AVX. Mouser and Molex have been partnering to sponsor Formula E racing since 2015.
Earlier this year, Formula E was independently ranked and recognised as the most sustainable sport in the world by the Global Sustainability Benchmark in Sports (GSBS), in addition to maintaining the International Standard for Sustainable Events (ISO 20121) and the FIA Three-Star level for Environmental Accreditation.
Using the very latest technology, the DS Performance Team has stretched the boundaries of efficiency and performance with the DS E-TENSE powertrain and software. Racing is all about speed and endurance, and racing sponsorships are an innovative way for Mouser to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies from its manufacturer partners.
