Mouser-Backed DS PENSKE Formula E Racing Team Heads to the Eternal City for Rome E-Prix
Mouser Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction (NPI) leader™ empowering innovation, is excited to cheer on the DS PENSKE Formula E Racing Team as they head to Rome for rounds 13 and 14 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship on July 15 and 16.
The Rome E-Prix will be one of the longest tracks of the season, as the Circuito Cittadino dell’EUR races around the Obelisco di Marconi against the backdrop of the iconic Colosseo Quadrato. The Rome circuit features plenty of challenges for the drivers and teams with undulations and lots of elevation changes. It’s a technical and fast track with long straights and a host of passing opportunities in the Eternal City. Team drivers for the Rome E-Prix are Season 8 Champion Stoffel Vandoorne and two-time Formula E Champion Jean-Éric Vergne, both of whom are intimately familiar with the track. Vandoorne and Vergne each took the top spot on the podium in separate Formula E races in 2021 and will be looking to repeat their previous victories.
Mouser is supporting the DS PENSKE team for the globe-trekking 2022–23 season, in collaboration with TTI, Inc. and valued manufacturers Molex and KYOCERA AVX. Mouser and Molex have been partnering to sponsor Formula E racing since 2015.
Formula E is an international, fully electric street racing series that brings the latest innovations in electric vehicles and alternative energy solutions to the world’s major city centres by creating a motorsport experience that will excite generations to embrace clean energy for a smarter future. Earlier this year, Formula E was independently ranked and recognised as the most sustainable sport in the world by the Global Sustainability Benchmark in Sports (GSBS), in addition to maintaining the International Standard for Sustainable Events (ISO 20121) and the FIA Three-Star level for Environmental Accreditation.
Using the very latest technology, the DS Performance Team has stretched the boundaries of efficiency and performance with the DS E-TENSE powertrain and software. Racing is all about speed and endurance, and racing sponsorships are an innovative way for Mouser to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies from its manufacturer partners.
