La F\u00f3rmula E ha completado su sexta temporada con seis carreras en Berl\u00edn. El campe\u00f3n fue el piloto portugu\u00e9s Antonio F\u00e9lix da Costa en el DS Techeetah. No s\u00f3lo la pausa de casi cinco meses de Covid 19 ha hecho que esta temporada no se parezca a ninguna otra. <\/p>\n

No fue ninguna sorpresa que Antonio F\u00e9lix da Costa se hiciera con el t\u00edtulo. Un piloto que ya hab\u00eda ganado carreras en la F\u00f3rmula E para dos equipos (Aguri y BMW i Andretti) se pas\u00f3 a DS Techeetah, el equipo con mejor palmar\u00e9s de los \u00faltimos a\u00f1os, por lo que no es de extra\u00f1ar que se trate de una combinaci\u00f3n con potencial. Pero lo sorprendente fue la clara ventaja de da Costa sobre el resto de pilotos: El piloto portugu\u00e9s termin\u00f3 esta temporada \u00fanica con 158 puntos - el segundo puesto lo ocup\u00f3 Stoffel Vandoorne en el Mercedes con s\u00f3lo 87 puntos.<\/p>\n

Pero esta temporada no s\u00f3lo estuvo marcada por el campe\u00f3n en el coche de carreras negro dorado, sino tambi\u00e9n, por supuesto, por la pandemia de Corona. Despu\u00e9s de cinco carreras, la temporada tuvo que interrumpirse porque se prohibieron eventos importantes y las restricciones de viaje impidieron acudir, por ejemplo, al ePrix de Sanya, en China. O como en Londres, donde<\/a> se construy\u00f3 un hospital provisional para los pacientes del Covid-19 en la zona prevista del hip\u00f3dromo.<\/p>\n

Da Costa no se dej\u00f3 impresionar por la interrupci\u00f3n de la temporada hasta las reci\u00e9n planificadas seis carreras finales en tres variantes de pista en Berl\u00edn. En las dos primeras carreras, continu\u00f3 donde se hab\u00eda detenido en Marruecos: con victorias. En once carreras, Costa s\u00f3lo dej\u00f3 de puntuar dos veces, pero no import\u00f3 en la segunda vuelta nula, porque all\u00ed ya se hab\u00eda coronado campe\u00f3n. Este es el tipo de regularidad que se le hab\u00eda escapado hasta ahora. Y ello a pesar de lo que ha sido en ocasiones un feroz duelo interno de equipo con Jean-Eric Vergne, el campe\u00f3n de las dos \u00faltimas temporadas.<\/p>\n

El subcampe\u00f3n Stoffel Vandoorne tambi\u00e9n es una sorpresa. Tras diez de las once carreras disputadas, el antiguo piloto de F\u00f3rmula 1 s\u00f3lo ocupaba la novena posici\u00f3n en el campeonato de pilotos. Pero el jueves todo cambi\u00f3 porque el belga gan\u00f3 su primera carrera de F\u00f3rmula E en el final de temporada. Con una actuaci\u00f3n impecable -25 puntos por la victoria y 3 puntos por la pole-, el belga consigui\u00f3 superar a siete rivales, entre ellos el campe\u00f3n del a\u00f1o pasado, Vergne. Al mismo tiempo, fue la primera victoria del equipo de trabajo de Mercedes en su primera temporada. Inmediatamente una doble victoria: Nick de Vries en el segundo Mercedes fue segundo el jueves, por delante de Sebastian Buemi en el Nissan e.dams. Positivo para Nissan: Gracias al podio de Buemi y a la sorprendente victoria de su compa\u00f1ero Oliver Rowland el mi\u00e9rcoles, el piloto japon\u00e9s se asegur\u00f3 el segundo puesto en la clasificaci\u00f3n por equipos.<\/p>\n

La temporada de Mercedes parec\u00eda que no iba a funcionar<\/h2>\n

Sin embargo, el primer a\u00f1o como equipo de f\u00e1brica (antes lo fue HWA) empez\u00f3 de forma positiva, con dos clasificaciones para Stoffe Vandoorne. Pero sobre todo en la calificaci\u00f3n, el ex piloto de F\u00f3rmula 1 Vandoorne y su compa\u00f1ero de equipo Nick de Vries tuvieron problemas con sus Mercedes en muchas pistas para igualar el ritmo de la competencia en una vuelta. En la carrera, los Mercedes fueron a menudo r\u00e1pidos y, sobre todo, eficientes. Pero con las a menudo malas posiciones de parrilla en el estrecho y muy competitivo mediocampo, los Mercedes perdieron a menudo demasiado tiempo respecto a los de cabeza para poder luchar por los puestos delanteros. Los que salen desde la 15\u00aa posici\u00f3n probablemente s\u00f3lo tengan posibilidades de subir al podio en los circuitos urbanos con la complicada gesti\u00f3n de la energ\u00eda en los ca\u00f3ticos aut\u00f3dromos.<\/p>\n

Adem\u00e1s, el riesgo de colisi\u00f3n en la fase de salida es mayor en el centro del campo, como tuvieron que comprobar tanto Vandoorne como de Vries en otras carreras en Berl\u00edn. Cuando ambos pilotos de Mercedes salieron desde las dos primeras filas de la parrilla en la \u00faltima carrera de la temporada, pudieron aprovechar al m\u00e1ximo su velocidad y eficacia: poco antes del final, de Vries pudo adelantar a Buemi gracias a su estilo de conducci\u00f3n m\u00e1s econ\u00f3mico y con m\u00e1s energ\u00eda residual, arrebat\u00e1ndole as\u00ed los puntos decisivos al piloto de Nissan, de modo que Vandoorne pudo conseguir la segunda plaza. Si Buemi hubiera acabado segundo por detr\u00e1s de Vandoorne, el suizo habr\u00eda terminado por delante del belga en la clasificaci\u00f3n general. As\u00ed pues, para Mercedes un buen final de temporada de estreno.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Porsche is fast but energy-hungry<\/h2>\n

Porsche’s first season in Formula E was also positive overall. Andr\u00e9 Lotterer was able to prove the speed of the Porsche 99X electric with two podium finishes (at the first race of the season in Saudi Arabia and the first Berlin race) and a pole position at the fourth race of the season in Mexico. Lotterer was also able to score points in five of the six final races and had chances for the vice title until the last race. In the decisive last race, however, Lotterer went away empty-handed, falling from 5th to 8th place in the overall standings.<\/p>\n

His teammate Neel Jani had more problems, however, and could only score points in the penultimate race of the season. Porsche had obviously made good use of the Corona break since the 99X electric was fast from the beginning, but often lost a lot of places towards the end of the race, because the drivers had to save too much energy. The energy management, which is so important in Formula E, was increasingly successful for the team, whether due to lower consumption or better race strategies. Lotterer lost another podium finish in the penultimate race of the season only two corners before the end because Ren\u00e9 Rast in the Audi had even more energy available at the end of the race. Jani, too, was unable to attack Alex Lynn from Mahindra in the fight for fifth place. But the tendency at Porsche was upwards over the course of the season.<\/p>\n

Extreme Season for BMW<\/h2>\n

This cannot be said about BMW i Andretti. The team cannot be satisfied with the final. The de facto factory team of the Munich team that starts with a US license because of partner Andretti, had still been hoping for the team ranking before the six final races, Maximilian G\u00fcnther for the vice title among the drivers. The Bavarian could also win one of the six final races. But in the other five races, G\u00fcnther did not score a single point.<\/p>\n

In general, G\u00fcnther’s season, the first with BMW, was marked by extremes. G\u00fcnther only scored points in three races. But when he did, he won a place on the podium: He won the third race of the season in Chile, as well as the third race in Berlin. In Marrakech, he finished second behind the later champion da Costa. Otherwise, there were only zero laps \u2013 too inconsistent to be among the absolute top drivers in Formula E. This also applies to his team-mate Alexander Sims, who had won the second race in Saudi Arabia. The British driver scored points several times, but also came away empty-handed five times. After two victories in the first three races, BMW certainly hoped for more from the further course of the season than the 9th and 10th places among the drivers and in the end 5th place among the teams.<\/p>\n

The situation was similar with Jaguar: Until the Corona break, New Zealander Mitch Evans was considered a serious candidate for the championship. In Berlin, however, Jaguar was never able to compete for the top positions \u2013 accordingly, Evans slipped from his promising position in the championship with every further race on the Tempelhofer Feld.<\/p>\n

First completely unsuccessful season for Audi<\/h2>\n

It was also a very mixed season for Audi. The first season without a win for Audi and its predecessor team Abt, a total of just three podium finishes by Lucas di Grassi and Ren\u00e9 Rast. Di Grassi had never finished worse than third overall in any season so far, in 2019\/2020 he only finished sixth. Daniel Abt, who drove for Audi up to the incident in the “Race at Home Challenge”, had previously scored only eight points. This \u2013 and the familiarisation phase of the first four Berlin races for Ren\u00e9 Rast \u2013 ensured that Audi customer team Virgin is ahead of the factory team in the team classification. In sixth place, Audi even finishes behind BMW.<\/p>\n

However, di Grassi in the drivers’ championship in the aforementioned sixth place was still the best driver with Audi power. Too little for the demands in Ingolstadt, also measured by the fact that di Grassi only managed to pass Porsche driver Lotterer in the overall standings with his sixth place in the final race – Porsche is the newcomer, Audi the team with Formula E experience in the VW group. Especially the performance of Robin Frijns at the season finale (3 times on the podium) put Virgin ahead of the works team in the team classification. But with two Superpole entries in the last two races of the season and third place in race 10 and fourth place in race 11, Rast has shown a steep learning curve – and makes you want to do more in 2021.<\/p>\n

Just how much the car is important in Formula E, despite the same look, can be seen not only in the driver and team champion DS Techeetah. Daniel Abt has never missed any of the Formula E races held in total and has won some of them. After being sacked by Audi he docked with the Chinese Nio 333 team for the six final races in Berlin. In the slowest car in the field, even Abt was unable to make an impact on his favourite track in Berlin. Like his team-mate, Oliver Turvey, Abt remained without points. Despite the ongoing support of his fans, who continued to give Abt the fan boost.<\/p>\n

After the unique 20219\/2020 season is before the once again unique 2021 season \u2013 due to the Corona pandemic the Formula E season will not be held across the year for the first time. A total of 14 races are planned between 14 January in Chile and 25 July in London. So far, Berlin is scheduled for 19 June, and Formula E is also scheduled to race in Monaco again on 8 May 2021.<\/p>\n

One thing is already certain: No matter who is at the top of the standings after the two races in London, Antonio Felix da Costa will not be directly followed by the drivers. While the Portuguese driver is “only” allowed to call himself the champion of Formula E Season 6, the best driver of the 2021 season will receive a completely different honour: and will then be allowed to call themselves a World Champion.<\/p>\n
