Ricardo will continue its successful multiple championship-winning relationship with DS Performance, designing and supplying transmissions for the team’s car competing in the world’s premier all-electric street racing championship
As the trusted engineering partner for world-championship winning and world-record breaking motorsport teams for over 40 years, Ricardo Performance Products has today announced it will be extending its successful relationship with DS Performance to design and supply transmissions for the team’s car competing in Formula E season 8 and extending into seasons 9 and 10 with the third generation vehicle.
Ricardo has been successfully supporting DS Performance in Formula E for a number of years. In particular, the collaboration resulted in the ‘double double’ drivers’ and team championships for DS Techeetah in the 2019-2020 season and the 2018-2019 season. The bespoke transmissions which Ricardo will supply to DS Performance will be designed in conjunction with the team in Satory and manufactured by the specialist engineers and niche manufacturing team at Ricardo’s Midlands Technical Centre in Leamington Spa in the UK.
