<h2> About the Mercedes-EQ Formula E Team </h2>

Motorsport has been a core element of Mercedes-Benz for more than 125 years. The first vehicle to bear the Mercedes-Benz name was a racing car. At the end of 2019, Mercedes-Benz added a new chapter in its long and successful motorsport history. The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is the ideal platform to demonstrate the performance of the Mercedes-EQ battery-powered electric vehicles, offering a completely new kind of experience, which combines racing with a unique event character. The team celebrated the first ever fully electric race win for Mercedes-Benz in their debut season in Formula E. In Season 7, only the second full season for the team in the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship, the team clinched a historic double World Championship, by finishing first in both Teams' and Drivers' Championships. The following season, which would also mark the last season in Formula E for Mercedes-EQ, the team managed to repeat its impressive result, and scored another double World Championship.
