NEXT STOP SHANGHAI FOR DS AUTOMOBILES AND FORMULA E!

• For the second consecutive year, the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will head to Shanghai in China for a double-header this weekend

• DS Automobiles and PENSKE AUTOSPORT are determined to add to their points score and can rely on the talents of drivers Jean-Eric Vergne and Maximilian Günther

• JEV, who was on pole in China last year, will be on a mission to fly the flag for the French manufacturer, where he is a brand ambassador 

From May 31 to June 1, the Chinese metropolis of Shanghai will host rounds 10 and 11 of Season 11 of Formula E. Run on a shortened version of the famed international circuit, the Shanghai E-Prix should once more offer intense competition and plenty of surprises.

For DS PENSKE, the main goal will be to place the two DS E-TENSE FE25 cars in the points and to get back into the overall top three in the championship.

Jean-Eric Vergne and Maximilian Günther, driving the all-electric single-seaters developed by DS Performance, will be equally determined to achieve this objective.

The Shanghai races will take place on Saturday and Sunday at 09:00 CET (15:00 local time).

Eugenio Franzetti, DS Performance director:

“We’re obviously expecting a lot from this Shanghai E-Prix. We have seven races before the end of the season and we absolutely need to score points to get back on the overall podium. I think that we’re absolutely capable of achieving our goal as we have learned from our mistakes and benefit from a very competitive car at our disposal!”

Key figures since DS Automobiles entered Formula E:

• 130 races
• 4 championship titles
• 17 victories
• 52 podiums
• 25 pole positions
