Quotes on Hankook iON Race

Nico Müller (ABT Cupra Formula E Team) after Saturday’s race: “The track really didn’t go easy on the tyres today. We were actually more focussed on saving a lot of energy. But we slightly underestimated the fact that we probably should have gone a little easier on the tyres, and that was rough at the end.”

Maximilian Günther (Maserati MSG Racing) after the weekend: “Tyre management was definitely a major theme of the weekend. The pace during a lap in qualifying was very good. It was much more difficult during the race since the track with its elongated turns subjects the tyres to extreme wear. But the performance was okay overall and tyre wear wasn’t an issue.”
