北京時(shí)間8月14日,2021 ABB國(guó)際汽聯(lián)FE電動(dòng)方程式世界錦標(biāo)賽再訪德國(guó)柏林滕珀?duì)柣舴驒C(jī)場(chǎng),NIO 333 FE車隊(duì)在此參加本賽季的最后兩個(gè)分站比賽。遺憾的是,NIO 333 FE車隊(duì)的計(jì)劃并沒有在全電動(dòng)賽車系列賽的第14站比賽中奏效,期待在第15站比賽,即FE第七賽季的最終戰(zhàn)上尋求突破。

而此刻當(dāng)?shù)貢r(shí)間臨近中午,第15站比賽也已進(jìn)行至排位賽的爭(zhēng)奪,NIO 333 FE車隊(duì)湯姆·布隆奎斯特發(fā)揮出色,從第四組出發(fā)并且闖入超級(jí)桿位賽,最終排名第5位,收獲了稍晚舉行的正賽的前排發(fā)車機(jī)會(huì)。堅(jiān)守一心,共同去創(chuàng)造深刻且難忘的收官賽吧!讓我們期待今晚的精彩表現(xiàn)和更多的驚喜!

R14正賽成績(jī):第23

今天這里的排位賽時(shí)間非常緊張,最終的排名原可能比我們所看到的名次更高。第17位發(fā)車是一個(gè)殘酷的結(jié)果,但我的正賽開始時(shí)非常強(qiáng)勁。我在第一個(gè)彎道上升了好幾個(gè)位置,但后來隨后的第六個(gè)彎道上,對(duì)手從后面撞到我的賽車,破壞了我的橫拉桿,只能進(jìn)站維修,真是太遺憾了!
收集數(shù)據(jù)以嘗試學(xué)習(xí)一些東西很重要,但總的來說,這是一個(gè)艱難的一天!FE電動(dòng)方程式是一個(gè)艱難的錦標(biāo)賽,希望明天我們能再次提高,進(jìn)一步調(diào)整我們的賽車,把積分榜上升?!?/p>

“自由練習(xí)進(jìn)行得很順利。我們做了一些改變,讓我在推圈上有了更好的感覺,賽車在兩次自由練習(xí)賽中都感覺很有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。不幸的是,在排位賽中,大家的時(shí)間都很接近,我發(fā)揮出較好的圈速表現(xiàn),但還是不如自由練習(xí)的好。
正賽開始也很順利。我設(shè)法在第一圈上升一些位置,但隨著比賽的進(jìn)行,我們?cè)谘谉岬臈l件下與我的后輪胎和速度做斗爭(zhēng)。這是一場(chǎng)艱難的比賽,但我們今天學(xué)到了很多,希望我們能把這些經(jīng)驗(yàn)運(yùn)用到明天的比賽中去?!?/p>

“最終,今天的比賽讓我們感到沮喪。我們通過自由練習(xí)取得了一些有希望的進(jìn)展之后,我們期望得到更多。FE賽車之間的碰撞讓湯姆在正賽第一圈的中途失去了一個(gè)潛在的強(qiáng)勁成績(jī)。很多冠軍競(jìng)爭(zhēng)者在排位賽中落后于我們,我們知道正賽前幾圈將有多瘋狂,但在最近的比賽中持續(xù)的賽車接觸令人難以接受。
奧利弗在比賽開始時(shí)表現(xiàn)很好,在練習(xí)中有一些不錯(cuò)的表現(xiàn),但在整個(gè)正賽中卻無法保持我們想要的速度。對(duì)于明天我們?nèi)绾胃玫仄胶馕覀兊脑O(shè)置和策略,有一些教訓(xùn)要吸取。很明顯,賽場(chǎng)上到處都是最初表現(xiàn)良好的賽車,以及后來表現(xiàn)良好的賽車。如果沒有早期的安全車,我們的方法可能會(huì)更好。不幸的是,有時(shí)候就是這樣。
我們保持樂觀,今天已經(jīng)過去了。我們對(duì)明天的目標(biāo)充滿雄心壯志,我們正努力以我們開始時(shí)的方式結(jié)束這個(gè)賽季——以一個(gè)好的積分結(jié)束?!?/p>

The 2021 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship has returned to Tempelhof airfield in Berlin, Germany, in spectacular style for the season finale event.
Round 14 of the all-electric racing series did not go to plan for the NIO 333 Formula E Team, however the final day of track action for Season 7 starts at 08:00 CET tomorrow with Free Practice 1 for Round 15 followed by Free Practice 2 at 09:30 CET, Qualifying at 11:30 CET and the final race of 2021 at 16:30 CET.
Tom Blomqvist, #88 NIO 333 FE 001
Qualifying Group 4 - Race Grid Position: P17
Round 14 Race Result: P23 (DNF)
“The Qualifying times were super tight around here today and the final classification could have seen us much higher up. P17 was a harsh result, but my race start was very strong. I made up a couple of positions with a good first corner, but then got hit from behind at turn 6 and broke the track rod again, so that was a shame. Then you obviously have to repair it and lose a few laps, so that was my race done really. It was then important to collect data to try to learn a few things, but overall it was a hard day! Formula E is a tough Championship, hopefully tomorrow we can improve again, further tune our package and move up the table.”
Oliver Turvey, #8 NIO 333 FE 001
Qualifying Group 4 - Race Grid Position: P20
Round 14 Race Result: P17
?“Free Practice went pretty well. We made some changes that gave me a better feeling on the push laps and the car felt quite competitive in both Free Practice sessions. Unfortunately, in Qualifying, all the times were just so close. I had a good clean lap, but just not quite as good as my practice lap. The race start went well also. I managed to gain a few positions in the first lap, but as the race progressed, we struggled with the rear tyres in the hot conditions, and for pace. It was a difficult race, but we learned a lot today and hopefully we can implement that to make improvements for tomorrow.”
Russell O’Hagan, Operations Director, NIO 333 FE Team
“Ultimately today’s race has left us frustrated. After some promising developments through Free Practice we had expected more. We again fell foul to the physical nature of Formula E racing, which robbed Tom of a potentially strong result halfway through the first lap. With the championship so open and a lot of title contenders qualifying behind us, we knew it would be a frantic first few laps, but the level of ongoing contact in recent races is hard to accept.
Oliver started the race well, building on some good performances in practice, but was unable to maintain the pace we wanted throughout the race. There are some lessons to be learnt for tomorrow on how we better balance our setup and strategy over a full race distance.? It was clear up and down the field that there were cars which performed well initially, and those which flourished later on. Without the early safety car, our approach would for have fared better. Unfortunately, that’s the way it goes sometimes.?
We remain upbeat and have already put today behind us. We are ambitious in what we hope to achieve tomorrow and are pushing hard to end the season how we started it - with a good points finish.”
