在缺席FE电动方程式比赛一年之后,一直广受欢迎的FE纽约站将在本周末回归到2021 国际汽联电动方程式世界锦标赛的赛历中。NIO 333 FE车队也将迎来本赛季的第10站和第11站的比赛。想必广大车迷对这条靠近布鲁克林邮轮码头的滨海赛道也十分的熟悉了。

该邮轮码头于2006年开放,每年接待近50艘邮轮和25万名乘客,赛道在11号和12号码头的区域将被绵延数英里的混凝土墙环绕,在这里可以看到Buttermilk海峡、曼哈顿下城和自由女神像。

尽管由于新冠疫情,2020年的FE纽约站被取消,但FE电动方程式系列赛仍向当地非营利组织提供了价值 50,000 美元的赠款,这些组织在整个疫情期间除了其持续的社区支持,还为邻国提供食物和重要服务。

After a year’s absence, the ever-popular New York City E-Prix returns to the Formula E calendar for Rounds 10 and 11 of the 2021 all-electric, street racing FIA World Championship next week. The track remains in its familiar location - winding its way around the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal site located in the Red Hook neighbourhood of Brooklyn.

The Terminal opened in 2006 with one cruise quay handling almost 50 cruise ships and 250,000 passengers annually. This year it will once again house the Formula E BOSS Emotion Club and media centre, whilst the Formula E track itself, lined with miles of unforgiving concrete walls, will sweep around Piers 11 and 12 with views across the Buttermilk Channel and over towards Lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.

“After just missing out on a points finish in Mexico, I feel we made some progress as a team over the weekend, so I am looking forward to getting back in the car to race in New York. It’s been two years since we last raced in the Big Apple, so it will be great to go back to one of the most iconic cities in the world. The track is very technical with a number of tight sections and a fast, final corner so qualifying will be important. It’s always a hot race which is tough on the cars, but after scoring points there last time, I will be aiming to achieve that again for the team.”

Tom Blomqvist, #88 NIO 333 FE 001

“Personally, I think it’s great we’re able to race in New York - it’s such an iconic city. I have never raced there so it will be a first for me. The circuit is a proper street circuit with its own intricacies, also it tends to be hot at this time of year, so that will throw us teams another curveball to deal with. I’m excited! I feel like we made good progress last time out and hope to continue that in Brooklyn!”

Christian Silk, NIO 333 Formula E Team Principal

“It is great to be going back to New York, a track we always enjoy. This is a more traditional street track with close walls, tight turns, and bumpy straights, and hence will present a completely different challenge from Puebla. The team made good progress on the setup of the cars in Mexico, so we are keen to go racing again as soon as possible. Hopefully in New York we can show the true pace of the NIO 333 Formula E race cars.”

Despite the NYC E-Prix being cancelled in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Formula E series provided $50,000 worth of grants to local non-profit organisations who were on the front lines of providing food and vital services to their neighbours throughout the pandemic in addition to its on-going community based support.
