Mouser-Supported Formula E Team Eyes Victory in Valencia

April 20, 2021 - Mouser Electronics cheers on the DRAGON / PENSKE AUTOSPORT Formula E racing team as they blast through to Rounds 5 and 6 in a doubleheader at the Valencia E-Prix on April 24 and 25. This marks the first official Formula E race at the Spanish circuit, which has been the series' test venue since Season 4.

Mouser is partnering with the team throughout the 2020-21 ABB FIA Formula E Championship racing season, in collaboration with TTI, Inc. and valued suppliers Molex and AVX. This is the seventh-straight year that Mouser and Molex have sponsored Formula E racing.

The Formula E series features cars that are powered solely by electricity and represent a vision for the future of the motor sports industry, serving as a framework for research and development around zero-emission motoring. The Gen2 cars offer a huge step forward in electric vehicle racing technology, with maximum power of 250 kW and speeds up to 280 km/h. Racing is all about speed and endurance, and racing sponsorships are an innovative way for Mouser to communicate its performance-driven business model and promote the newest technologies from its manufacturer partners.

Team drivers for the Valencia E-Prix are Nico Müller in the No. 6 car and Sérgio Sette Câmara behind the wheel of the No. 7 car.

Fans can cast a vote for Müller and Sette Câmara in FANBOOST, which allows fans to play an active role in influencing the outcome of the race. FANBOOST gives fans the opportunity to vote for their favorite driver and award them an extra boost of power during the race. The five drivers with the most FANBOOST votes are awarded a significant burst of power, which they can deploy in a 5-second window during the second half of the race. FANBOOST voting for the Valencia E-Prix opens April 21 and is available up to 15 minutes into the race.
