Audi driver #lucasdigrassi performs spectacular stunt on the Upper #newyork Bay
Daniel Abt flies over Manhattan in an open-door helicopter
- Freestyle skier Benedikt Mayr is a guest of Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler
New York, July 12, 2019 – This weekend’s double-header #Event in #newyork (USA) marks the end of the fifth season of Formula E. Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler still has chances to claim both titles. With temperatures of over 30 degrees Celsius and high humidity, the drivers expect a tough season finale.
Lucas di Grassi took an unusual route to the racetrack in Brooklyn on Thursday: the Brazilian crossed the Upper #newyork Bay for a PR appointment on an e-Foil. In keeping with the occasion, the Audi driver wore his #racing overalls. The result: spectacular photos set to the backdrop of the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline. “That was cool,” said di Grassi. “But I wouldn’t recommend swimming in overalls; it absorbs the water quickly and gets really heavy.”
On Thursday morning, #danielabt experienced #newyork from the air. The German took ahelicopter tour over Manhattan and sat with his legs hanging out of an open door. “It was a great experience,” said Abt, who had already flown over Manhattan by helicopter two years ago. “But that time the door was closed.”Further information in the press release to download
