Robin Frijns will return to the Abt FormulaE squad for the inaugural Sao Paolo E-Prix after missing four races through injury. ⬇️
Van der Linde was also scheduled to race on home turf in Cape Town, but both Abt entries and those of technical partner Mahindra were forced to withdraw on safety grounds due to a rear suspension fault.
Following his race return with WRT in the World Endurance Championship's Sebring 1000 Miles, which yielded sixth in the LMP2 class, Frijns will return for this Saturday's race on the site of the former Sao Paolo IndyCar race as the former Audi works squad seeks the first points finish of its comeback.Frijns reported that his “hand feels good” and that the Sebring weekend “went smoothly”, giving him confidence for his FE comeback.
“It feels insanely good to be preparing for a race again with Nico and the whole team – it’s so good to be back,” said Frijns. “The past two months have felt like an eternity. Many thanks to the team, the FIA, all the doctors and physios, and the whole Formula E paddock, who have been patient with me despite me being so impatient.”Team boss Thomas Biermaier said he was “delighted that Robin is back on board and will certainly support us with his experience” as the team regroups from its Cape Town non-start.
“The break was good for the whole team, everyone was able to take a deep breath and gather new strength,” he said.
