BMW i has today confirmed itâs set to increase its ties with the ABB FIA Formula E Championship as the race title partner of the BMW i Berlin E-Prix on May 19.
Â
As well as being the official vehicle partner of the series, the German manufacturer is also putting its name to their home race on the return of Formula E to Tempelhof Airport later next month. The E-Prix in Berlin will feature the BMW i brand for multiple seasons – again showing the long-standing support of BMW i to the re-invention of sustainable mobility.
Â
Alejandro Agag, Founder & CEO of Formula E, said:Â âThe race in Berlin has featured on the calendar every season and weâve been working closely alongside BMW i for equally as long, so itâs pleasing to see their growing commitment to the series. BMW i has always been supportive of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship since the very beginning – both as official vehicle partner and now as the race title partner of the BMW i Berlin E-Prix. Iâm looking forward to seeing the fans showing up in force for what Iâm sure will be another scintillating spectacle at Tempelhof Airport.â
Â
âThe title partnership for the German round of the ABB FIA Formula E Championship in Berlin is a key component of our extensive commitment to this series,â said JĂśrg Reimann, Vice President BMW Brand Experience. âFor BMW, the opportunity to actively shape the event and offer visitors a unique BMW brand experience is always at the heart of this kind of co-operation. That is precisely what we will be doing at the BMW i Berlin E-Prix alongside Formula E.â
