A German climate change group delayed the start of the second BerlinEPrix Formula E race after protestors stormed the track Full story ⬇️
German group Letzte Generation claimed responsibility for the disruption, with the organisation holding a series of demonstrations around the German capital city over the course of the weekend.
The group are calling on the German government to take action against climate change and took to Twitter about their actions: “We are at the @eFORMELde racetrack to sound the alarm. “It's time to slow down. Because we're on the highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.”Formula E also released a statement following the incident: “The race was temporarily delayed while local authorities responded to a protest action unrelated to the event. Security services quickly and safely contained the disruption. The event was able to proceed as planned.”
This is the second high-profile single-seater race to be disrupted by protestors in the last 12 months, with Just Stop Oil members storming the Silverstone circuit at the 2022 British Grand Prix. Several members of the group accessed the track along the Wellington Straight on the opening lap of the race, which was red-flagged following Zhou Guanyu’s first-corner accident which sent his Alfa Romeo Formula 1 car over the barrier.
