5月8日，2021 国际汽联电动方程式世界锦标赛第七站在迷人的地中海风光下正式落幕，参加正赛的NIO 333 FE车队车手汤姆·布隆奎斯特（Tom Blomqvist）和奥利弗·特维（Oliver Turvey）分别从第21和第22的位置发车，最终收获了第15和第19的成绩。

这条标志性的蒙特卡洛赛道沿城市街道而布置，环绕着摩纳哥公国的港口。由于赛道的狭窄和曲折，全赛段几乎没有超车机会，因此获得排位优势至关重要。

然而不幸的是，NIO 333 FE车队车手在排位赛上都出现了失误，使他们无法取得最佳表现，并在发车区倒数第二排位置参加45分钟+1圈的摩纳哥站正赛。

这是极具挑战性的一天。由于车速的问题，我们无法展现全部的潜力，所以我们想了解问题发生的原因。从现在开始距离墨西哥大奖赛还有几周的时间，我们将利用这个休赛期分析所有数据，并尝试找到解决方案。让我们看看这个休赛期能收获什么，在将来争取更多积分。

“这是艰难的一天。在赛前练习中，我们一直在努力寻找最佳的刹车点，在第二次自由练习中取得了不错的位置。在排位赛前半段我的表现不错，但后来我不幸上墙了。在这条赛道上，赛车的圈速非常接近，而我们的发车位过于靠后，因此在比赛中鲜有表现机会。不过，在比赛中我的发车不错，在第一个弯超掉了几台赛车。

随后，我在发卡弯不幸遭遇了前方的事故，这影响了我随后的比赛。我做出了一些精彩的战斗，但在这场困难的比赛中很难找准节奏。我们需要理解事情发生的原因，并在下一场比赛中更强大地回归。”

克里斯蒂安·西尔克（Christian Silk）

NIO 333 FE车队领队

"这不是我们来这里时所期待的周末。我们期望在排位赛中脱颖而出，正如我们所知，在这场比赛中排位赛就是一切，因为在摩纳哥很难超车。

话虽如此，我们的比赛节奏实际上看起来不错：我认为我们事实上成为了排位赛中的受害者。比赛中，车手们的发挥不错，车队控制也做得不错，但如此靠后的发车位让我们很难进入得分位置。

我们现在有几个星期在基地休整的时间，车队的工程师们将花些时间查看本周末的数据。我们需要了解在排位赛中发生了什么，然后以更昂扬的姿态参加墨西哥站的比赛。”

在摩纳哥蒙特卡洛赛道留下的数据对车队特别宝贵，赛后我们将会持续积极改进，再次感谢大家这几天这么给力的Fanboost投票，我们下月再见！2021年6月19日到6月20日，2021 国际汽联电动方程式世界锦标赛第8站和第9站赛事将于墨西哥普埃布拉赛道举行，敬请期待！

It was a difficult day in the office for the NIO 333 Formula E Team at Round 7 of the 2021 ABB Formula E World Championship in Monaco. The iconic circuit is laid out along the city streets of Monte Carlo and La Condamine which run around the harbour of the principality. Due to the narrow, tight, and twisty nature of the track good results in qualifying for a race here are crucial as there are few overtaking opportunities throughout the course. Unfortunately, both NIO 333 FE Team drivers Tom Blomqvist and Oliver Turvey had issues on their qualifying laps preventing them from extracting maximum performance from their cars during the Group sessions and lined up for the 45 minutes plus 1 lap event on the penultimate row of the starting grid. However, having made clean starts with evasive moves at the start of the Monaco E-Prix this afternoon, Tom made up several positions to take the chequered flag in P15, with Oliver crossing the line after a thrilling Formula E race in nineteenth.

Tom Blomqvist,

#88 NIO 333 FE 001

Qualifying Group 4 - Race Grid Position: P21

Round 7 Race Result: provisional P15

“Challenging day – we didn’t have much pace so we need to understand why this was as we couldn’t have got much more out of our race today. We will use these weeks up until the Mexico E-Prix to analyse all the data and try to come up with solutions to improve our package. Let’s see what we can learn in this break and try to implement some solutions so that we are more consistently fighting for points.”

Oliver Turvey, #8 NIO 333 FE 001

Qualifying Group 3 - Race Grid Position: P22

Round 7 Race Result: provisional P19

“It was a tough day. In practice we were struggling to find a good feeling with the brakes, but I managed to put in a decent lap in FP2. Unfortunately, in qualifying the first half of my lap was good, but then I clipped the wall. The times were so close today that we ended up too far back on the grid to make much of an impression in the race. However, I did manage to get a decent start and made up a few positions in the first corners. I was then just unfortunate at the hairpin; going on the outside I got caught up with the incident ahead and that compromised the rest of my race. I did get in some good battles though, but it was a tough race to find a good rhythm. We need to understand why that was and come back stronger for the next race."

Christian Silk,

NIO 333 Formula E Team Principal

“It is not the weekend we had hoped for when we came here. We struggled to get the most out of the cars in qualifying and, as we knew going into this race, qualifying is everything as it’s so difficult to overtake in Monaco. Having said that our race pace looked good; I think that we fell victim of where we qualified. The drivers did a good job, the team controlled the race well, but having qualified so far back it was always going to be very difficult to climb in to points scoring positions. We now have a few weeks back at base for the engineers to spend some time looking at the data from this weekend. We need to understand what happened in qualifying and come back stronger for the Mexico events.”

Championship take place in Latin America at a new location for the all-electric series in Puebla, Mexico on 19th and 20th June.
