The Abt Formula E team performed quite poorly in the 2023 Formula E season. While the team closed the first seven races without points, even though it opened towards the last races, it could not go beyond the sixth place and took the last place with 21 points in the constructors' championship.
It is not yet clear who will fill the vacancy for Robin Frijns, who left the team after the season. Team principal Thomas Biermaier said in an interview last week that they could deal with an "environmentally savvy driver living in Switzerland".
Naturally, the first name that comes to mind is Sebastian Vettel, as he resides in Switzerland with his family and has been working on environmental issues in recent years.
However, Biermaier denies Vettel's bid to join the team. Speaking to Motorspor-Total.com, Biermaier said: "I didn't mention the name Vettel once, it was put in my mouth [by the media]." said.
“There are other drivers who live in Switzerland and race sustainably in series like the Extreme E.” Biermaier said, “We have an empty seat right now. We received a relatively large number of requests, which is impressive. Our situation is much better than our last place indicates.” used the phrases.
The moves of the Abt Formula E team for the 2024 season are eagerly awaited.
