Formula E partnership

Electrifying partners

Bosch and electromobility go together like motorsport and excitement. This magnetic connection grows even stronger with our partnership with the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship — the first completely electric racing series in the world. The main goal as an official global partner is to show that electromobility makes mobility in inner cities not only more sustainable, but also more exciting and fun.

The city is the racetrack

What’s special about Formula E is that every race takes place directly in the heart of the city. This adds an urban, futuristic feeling and at the same time an extra challenge for the drivers. Each city has its own character and degree of difficulty.

Your vote decides the race

Sometimes nuances can make the difference between triumph and disappointment. In Formula E, the fans have the power to tip the scales. Before each race, fans can vote for their favorite drivers. The top 5 voted drivers have access to a five-second power boost during the second half of the race.

Full excitement — on and off the track

The entertainment is spread throughout a whole racing weekend. The main focus is of course on the race itself, but there’s a lot to discover off the track: fans can meet their heroes or see the cars of the future, get in touch with the newest technologies or enjoy the music of EJ – the resident DJ for Formula E.

I couldn’t think of a more natural tie-up — with Bosch’s long-standing tradition of competing in motorsport and expertise in electrification, automation, and connectivity.

Achieving more performance

With the central vehicle control unit, Bosch Motorsport not only offers the brain of the vehicle electronics, but also provides the team with innovative data transmission and analysis tools for vehicle testing, in addition to other components.

A common goal: being at the top in terms of sport and technology.

Formula E embodies the idea of motorsport as a technology platform for everyday mobility. As a partner and pioneer, Bosch also puts innovation among the top priorities in racing. This is evident not only in its innovative electronics and powertrain technology, but also in the new Julius Baer Pole Position Trophy, which Bosch has created utilizing its high level of manufacturing expertise. The trophy's carbon-fiber-reinforced shell is manufactured using a purely software-based 3D printing process. The inside forms a skeleton of fiberglass strands, which is reinforced with 100 % recyclable industrial plastic. In other words, the only limitation for Bosch engineers on this high-strength component is their creativity. The trophy is presented to the winner of the qualifying and thus represents an excellent starting position not only technically but also in sporting terms.
