Tyre Engineering in Formula E - Webinar
with Marta de Pfaff Ganduxer (Tyre Performance Engineer, NIO 333 Formula E)
About the event
Join us for an exciting webinar featuring Marta de Pfaff Ganduxer, tyre performance engineer at Nio 333 Formula E.
Tyre performance is a critical aspect that directly influences a car’s speed, handling, and overall competitiveness. In Formula E, tyre performance engineering presents unique challenges due to the series’ all-electric, single-spec nature. As teams use standardized chassis and batteries, they cannot modify the core components. Instead, they focus on optimizing tyre behaviour to gain a competitive edge.
