The Marrakesh E-Prix was launched last season as an official partner event of the concurrent UN Climate Conference “COP22” and marked the first ever appearance of Formula E in Africa. </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <br /> </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> The race this year will again be held at the Circuit International Automobile Moulay El Hassan. The circuit named after the Moroccan Crown Prince is located only a few minutes’ drive south of the metropolis of Marrakesh. Covering a 2.971-kilometer distance, the circuit is relatively long for a Formula E track and with only few turns but numerous straights offers good overtaking opportunities. Last season, the two drivers of Team Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler, Lucas di Grassi and Daniel Abt, finished in positions five and six. </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <br /> </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <strong style="padding:0px;margin:0px;border:0px;">Suspense galore guaranteed</strong> </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <b><br style="padding:0px;margin:0px;border:0px;" /> </b> 14 races at eleven events on five continents – the calendar of the innovative Formula E electric racing series is as extensive this season as never before.

Ever since the technical regulations began to provide greater latitude for the 2015/2016 season, specialists from Schaeffler have been involved in the development of the powertrain for the team’s race car. The new Audi e-tron FE04 for the 2017/2018 season incorporates technology “made by Schaeffler” as well. Together with Audi, engineers of the technology group developed the centerpiece of the vehicle: the combination of the motor and transmission. </p> <p style="padding:0px 10px 0px 0px;margin-top:-18px;margin-bottom:0px;border:0px;list-style-type:none;-webkit-padding-start:0px;-webkit-margin-before:0px;-webkit-margin-after:0px;color:#404547;font-family:Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;white-space:normal;background-color:#FFFFFF;"> <br /> </p>
