Daniel Abt has confirmed that he will race for the Audi Sport ABT team in season two.

The announcement was made today by the team owned by his father, two days before the German outfit’s home race in Berlin. Abt, who races under the number 66 in the electric motorsport, is currently in P11 in the drivers’ championship.

Abt’s team mate Lucas di Grassi, who is leading the drivers’ standings, confirmed he’d also be staying put two weeks ago, in the lead-up to the Monaco race.

The 22 year old German is the youngest driver on the grid in Formula E. He has scored points five times so far, claimed a pole position and finished on the podium for the first time in Miami. With his ADAC Formel Masters championship title, runner-up title in the GP3 series as well as Formula 3 and GP2 experience, Daniel Abt is one of Germany’s aspiring young talents in single-seater racing, and is delighted about his ever-increasing fan base.

“Formula E is going through a fantastic stage of development that includes exciting races and many cool ideas off the track. I think this series has a great future. I’m delighted to still be on board, and want to grow together with Formula E,” says Daniel Abt. “I’m obviously very proud that I can race in the future with the team that carries our family name.”

“I’m pleased that our two drivers are fully committed to us and that we can look to the future together with our dream team,” says team boss Hans-Jurgen Abt. “Motorsport is a hectic business, which is why we aim for continuity in such important aspects like technology, partners and drivers to create the greatest possible cohesion and calm within the team.”
