After the skyscrapers of New York City, the historic docklands of East London now form the fascinating backdrop for races 12 and 13 of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship on 24/25 July. The course layout on the Thames is spectacular – for the first time in the history of top-league Motorsport, the doubleheader event will be held indoors and outdoors. The twelve teams and 24 drivers contesting the world's first electric series face completely new and interesting challenges.

The TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team, which recently crowned its debut race in New York City with its best team result to date, will line up on the grid for the premiere on the ExCeL Track with two Porsche 99X Electric. For the first time, both Pascal Wehrlein (GER/#99) and André Lotterer (GER/#36) qualified for Super Pole in the Big Apple. For Amiel Lindesay, Head of Operations Formula E, this gives the team an extra boost of motivation: “We'll continue to put pressure on the frontrunners. After the improvement in our race performance recently, we're now eager for our first win.”
