随着2021/2022赛季国际汽联FE世界锦标赛(以下简称“FE”)官方测试的日益临近,各车队车手席位的归属也逐一揭晓。今日,NIO333 FE车队正式确定车手阵容。来自英国的赛场后起之秀丹· 提克图姆(Dan Ticktum)将加入车队,与奥利弗· 特维(Oliver Turvey)搭档组成全新车手阵容,共同代表NIO333 FE车队出击FE赛场,迎接第八赛季挑战。同时,亚当·卡罗尔(Adam Carroll)将继续担任车队发展及预备车手。

在经历了国际汽联F2世界二级方程式锦标赛(以下简称“F2”)两个赛季的激烈角逐后,丹·提克图姆将以新人之姿加入NIO333FE车队,代表车队驾驶33号赛车征战FE第八赛季比赛。2020年,丹·提克图姆在其F2新秀赛季中表现抢眼,不仅在英国银石主场取得了个人职业生涯首个F2分站冠军,最终更以四度登上领奖台为个人首个F2赛季画上了圆满的句点。目前,2021赛季F2争夺仍在继续,丹·提克图姆已两度斩获分站冠军,在赛季尚余两场比赛之际,暂列车手积分榜第四。值得一提的是,丹·提克图姆曾于2017、2018年,在竞争激烈的澳门格兰披治大赛车中,两度夺得澳门F3世界杯冠军。自澳门格兰披治大赛车创办以来,仅有三位车手在F3比赛中取得过该项成就。

丹·提克图姆表示:“我很高兴能够代表NIO333FE车队参加FE新赛季的角逐。这对我将是一个相当大的挑战,不仅因为我没有多少时间来准备下周的官方测试,也是因为FE这项赛事较为复杂,但我相信这将是一个非常有趣的赛季。作为车手我具有一定的驾驶经验,但驾驶FE赛车与驾驶F2赛车是完全不同的。我非常期待第八赛季的到来。过去几天,我在银石与车队的相处十分融洽,希望我们在新赛季的比赛中能够取得进步,提高比赛成绩。”

自FE首赛季伦敦收官站起,奥利弗·特维便始终与车队携手并肩,作为正式车手征战每一赛季。在过去的几个赛季中,奥利弗·特维代表车队屡获殊荣。2016/17赛季,奥利弗·特维在墨西哥站获得个人首个杆位;2017/18赛季,他再次于墨西哥站中斩获杆位,并最终以第二名完赛,收获个人第一座FE分站奖杯。

奥利弗·特维表示:“非常开心能够继续代表NIO333FE参加FE的比赛,延续这段自第一赛季以来一起走过的旅程。能在全新的银石总部与各位车队成员见面,这种感觉太美妙了。无论是致力于推动车队发展的管理团队,夜以继日进行研发、测试工作的工程师团队,还是积极为赛车做准备的技师团队,每个人都在非常努力地为新赛季的到来做准备。虽然我们都知道新赛季的FE将对我们带来不小的挑战,但我觉得我们正在朝着积极的方向前进,我已经迫不及待地想参加下周在巴伦西亚举行的官方测试了。”

此外,亚当·卡罗尔将在瓦伦西亚完成个人在NIO333FE车队的首次公开测试。官方测试期间,由于丹·提克图姆将于当地时间周二晚离开瓦伦西亚,前往沙特参加F2本赛季倒数第二站比赛,亚当·卡罗尔将替代前者,继续驾驶33号赛车完成余下测试任务。

亚当·卡罗尔表示:“能继续和车队在一起真是太好了,从上赛季柏林站结束之后大家一直都在努力的工作。新的银石总部设施真的令人印象深刻,我认为在如此条件下,一切都会朝着积极的方向发展。我们会将第七赛季获得的经验与进步发挥出来,并将这种势头延续到下一季。我非常盼望第八赛季能尽快到来,也期待下周在瓦伦西亚驾驶NIO333FE赛车参与测试。”

NIO333FE车队CEO王笑表示:“终于迎来第八赛季,看到我们全新的银石基地、新的车手阵容和全新面貌的团队,我非常兴奋。就像我今天在国际汽联亚太地区智慧城市高峰论坛上的发言一样,我想我们已经做好了准备为全球粉丝贡献更佳表现,取得更多的积分甚至登上领奖台。

热烈欢迎丹新赛季的加盟。我对丹的深刻印象是在澳门的比赛中。澳门格兰披治大赛车是世界最著名的赛事之一,很多世界冠军都在澳门有过出色的表现。丹的两次澳门F3夺冠,吸引了我。他经历了一些职业生涯的波折,我相信这些经历会使他成长令他成熟。放眼未来,我相信车队的选择,希望一颗新星在FE中绽放光芒。

毫无疑问,奥利弗是车队的重要成员,他为车队贡献了很多精彩时刻,中国车迷经常对我说,奥利弗已经与车队的灵魂紧紧地捆绑在一起。希望两位车手精诚团结、紧密合作,为实现新赛季成绩的突破,交上满意答卷。”

11月29-12月2日,FE将在西班牙瓦伦西亚的里卡多-托尔莫赛道进行官方测试。国际汽联FE世界锦标赛第八赛季揭幕战将于2022年1月28 /29日在沙特阿拉伯·迪丽耶举行。

Adam Carroll will continue with the team in the position of Development and Reserve Driver.

Dan Ticktum joins 333 Racing from two successful seasons in the highly competitive FIA Formula 2 series.

"I am very happy to be racing with the NIO 333 Formula E team. It’s going to be quite a big challenge as I have not had long to prepare for the test next week, and Formula E is complicated, but it’ll be very exciting. There are quite a few different tools you can use as a driver but it’s a totally different experience to Formula 2, so I’m really looking forward to it, both mentally and physically. I’ve had a great few days with the team at Silverstone this week and hopefully we can try to make some progress next season and get further up the grid.”

Since joining the Formula E series for the Season 1 finale in London, Oliver Turvey has become a consistent member of NIO 333 Formula E team line-up. Highlights with the team include his maiden pole at the Mexico E-Prix in Season 3, the same year he secured his place in eight consecutive Super Pole shoot-outs. In the 2017/18 all-electric racing competition, Oliver clinched Pole Position again in Mexico and was presented with his first FIA Formula E Championship trophy on the second step of the podium.

“I am delighted to be continuing with NIO 333 in Formula E, and to continue our journey together having been with the team since the first season. It’s fantastic to have the whole team together at the new facility in Silverstone. Everyone has worked extremely hard, from management taking the steps to move the team forwards, the engineers on development testing, and the mechanics with the preparation of the cars. Although we know the standard in Formula E is very high, I feel we have taken some positive steps forwards and I can’t wait to get out on track in the official test next week in Valencia.”

Adam Carroll will be making his NIO 333 Formula E Team public testing debut in Valencia. With Dan Ticktum flying out to the penultimate round of this year’s FIA Formula 2 on Tuesday evening, Adam will be taking to the track in the #33 NIO 333 001 on Thursday 2 December.

“It’s great to be continuing with the team who have been working so hard since the last race in Berlin. The new facilities at Silverstone are very impressive and everything is going in a positive direction. Our focus has been building on the progress made in Season 7 and carrying that momentum on into the coming season. I’m really looking forward to kicking off Season 8 and driving the NIO 333 Formula E car at the test in Valencia next week.”

Vincent Wang, CEO NIO 333 Formula E Team

“Ahead of the 8th season of the FIA Formula E World Championship I am excited to see our new driver line up and invigorated team in our new base just outside the Silverstone Circuit. We have been working hard these past few months and are prepared to earn points and get back on to the podium.

Let's warmly welcome Daniel Ticktum as our newest member of the NIO 333 Formula E family. His race results that impress me the most are the two victories in the Macau Grand Prix, one of the most famous races in the world. Though he has shouldered some difficulties during his career, I believe that his experience will pave the way to success. He is a young, bright new star who will shine on the Formula E racetrack.

There is no doubt that Oliver is an important member of the team. He has contributed many wonderful moments and Formula E fans have told me that Oliver has been tightly bound with the ‘soul of the team’. It is hoped that our two race drivers will work closely together to achieve breakthrough performances for the NIO 333 Formula E Team in the season ahead.”

Following next week’s official all-teams test at Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, Spain, round 1 of the eighth season of the FIA Formula E World Championship will get underway in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, with a double-header event on 28th/29th January 2022.
