BERLIN, Oct. 16 -- Robert Bosch GmbH will become one of the new major sponsors of the ABB FIA Formula E racing series, the German automotive supplier announced on Tuesday.
"Bosch is the number one partner for electric driving. We are now demonstrating this as an official partner of Formula E," said Markus Heyn, managing director of Robert Bosch GmbH.
The cooperation between the world's largest automotive supplier and the world's leading all-electric racing series is set for the next three years and will initially focus solely on an advertising partnership "and the global marketing platform of Formula E," Annette Fischer press spokeswoman for mobility solutions at Bosch told Xinhua on Tuesday.
A technical partnership concerning the Formula E vehicles would be taken into closer consideration by Bosch, the ABB FIA Formula E and the racing teams, added Fischer. "We are already working with the first teams on corresponding products and systems."
The ABB FIA Formula E Championship was first launched at the initiative by the former head of Ferrari's Formula 1 team Jean Todt in 2017. The first race of the 2018/2019 season will take place in the Saudi Arabian city of Ad Diriyah. The raceway near the Saudi Arabian capital Riad is scheduled to host the opening race on December 5th.
Also on Tuesday, the Indian Formula E Team Mahindra announced that Pascal Wehrlein, former Formula 1 driver and youngest champion of the German touring car championship (DTM), will be competing for Mahindra in the coming season. 23-year-old Wehrlein will replace the German pilot Nick Heidfeld, who raced in Formula 1 as well.
