Immer mehr Fahrerinnen bereichern die Formel E!
Beim Rookie-Test einen Tag nach dem E-Prix in Berlin (12./13. Juli) werden vier Fahrerinnen dabei sein – und zwei von ihnen haben neue wichtige Verträge mit ihren Teams abgeschlossen.
So gab Cupra Kiro bekannt, dass das philippinische Mega-Talent Bianca Bustamante (20) als feste Entwicklungsfahrerin verpflichtet wird – und schon beim Test in Berlin hinters Steuer steigt. Damit schließt sie sich den bereits bestätigten britischen Teilnehmerinnen Jamie Chadwick (27) bei Jaguar, Ella Lloyd (19) bei McLaren und Abbi Pulling (22) bei Nissan an.
[–>Bustamante ist bei Instagram bereits ein Star, hat dort 1,7 Millionen Follower. Dort schreibt sie ganz emotional: „So ein unwirklicher Moment. Ich kann immer noch nicht glauben, dass ich im Jahr 2025 diese Gelegenheit bekommen werde.“ Beim Rennen in Jakarta (21. Juni) durfte Bustamante zu den Fahrern Dan Ticktum und David Beckmann dazustoßen und wichtige Eindrücke sammeln. „Ich sauge alles auf und versuche, so viel wie möglich von diesem großartigen Team um mich herum zu lernen, bevor wir nächsten Monat für den Rookie-Test ins Auto steigen!“

Die Philippinerin startete in der W Series, bevor sie 2023 zur F1 Academy wechselte. Dort fuhr sie zwei Siege und insgesamt fünf Podiumsplätze ein – und stieg dann in die GB3-Meisterschaft auf.
Bianca Bustamante teilt ihre Eindrücke regelmäßig mit ihren Instagram-Followern

Die junge Rennfahrerin war wie die anderen Rookie-Teilnehmerinnen bereits beim Vorsaisontest der Formel E in Spanien (November 2024) dabei, bei dem erstmals nur Frauen starteten – und zwar nicht mit alten oder eingeschränkten Maschinen, sondern in den aktuellen Rennwagen der elf Teams. Jedes Team musste mindestens eine Frau für das Rennen auf dem „Circuito del Jarama“ nominieren. Dieser Test soll auch im kommenden November wieder stattfinden.

„Wir wissen, dass es keine einfache Lösung für eine größere Vielfalt im Motorsport gibt“, so Formel-E-CEO Jeff Dodds (52). „Aber wenn wir Frauen in unserer Serie wirklich Gleichberechtigung, Chancen und Sichtbarkeit bieten wollen, müssen die Bedingungen für alle gleich sein.“
Jamie Chadwick sagte am Rande des E-Prix in Saudi-Arabien zu SPORT BILD: „Jede Möglichkeit, diese Autos zu fahren und Erfahrung zu sammeln, ist so wertvoll. Ich bin wirklich glücklich darüber, dass ich Teil davon sein durfte.“
Ella Lloyd startet in Berlin für McLaren

Jetzt zeigt die Initiative Wirkung! Auch die Britin Abbi Pulling (22) hat mit Nissan einen großen Deal in der Tasche: Die F1-Academy-Meisterin des Jahres 2024 bekommt einen mehrjährigen Vertrag als Rookie- und Simulatorfahrerin bei dem japanischen Team. Nissan-Teamchef Tommaso Volpe sagt, er sei bei dem Frauentest „sehr beeindruckt“ gewesen von Pullings „Geschwindigkeit, Einsatz und Professionalität“.
Sehen wir bald wieder Frauen im Kampf um die Weltmeisterschaft? Mit Michela Cerruti (38/Italien), Simona de Silvestro (36/Schweiz) und Katherine Legge (44/Großbritannien) haben in der Formel-E-Geschichte bislang drei Pilotinnen Rennen bestritten.
Sie gilt als Super-Talent: Formel-E-Team verpflichtet 20-Jährige
Formel-E-Mitgründer Alberto Longo sagte vor dem Rennen in Berlin zu SPORT BILD: „Wir tun alles, was in unserer Macht steht, um den Frauen die Möglichkeit zu geben, ihre Fähigkeiten zu verbessern, denn am Ende müssen sie konkurrenzfähig sein und die Teamchefs überzeugen. Ich bin sehr zuversichtlich, dass wir, wenn wir so weitermachen, bald eine Frau in unserem Sport sehen werden.“

I texted him I said, ‘Hey, I love your energy, I love everything you’re about. But also, I’m 41.

Aaron Rodgers shares his one regret during time with Packers as Steelers QB prepares to face former team
While Aaron Rodgers took extra delight in beating the Jets back in Week 1, the Steelers quarterback has made it clear that the same energy doesn't apply to Sunday's game against the Packers, his other former team that he enjoyed a tremendous amount of success with during their 18-year partnership. "I don't have any animosity toward the organization," Rodgers said. "Obviously, I wish that things have been better in our last year there, but I have a great relationship with a lot of people still in that organization, and this is not a revenge game for me. I'm just excited to see some of those guys and be on 'Sunday Night Football.'" Rodgers has a profound appreciation for his time in Green Bay and the things he and the Packers were able to accomplish. He does, however, wish that their time together had ended […]
Could Cowboys’ DeMarvion Overshown have Micah Parsons-like impact upon Week 11 return?
FRISCO, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys explosive linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is back... at practice. The 25-year-old, who tore his ACL in the 2023 preseason as a rookie and then his ACL again, MCL and PCL on Thanksgiving last year, returned to practice on Wednesday in a limited capacity. Overshown went through individual position drills and then more conditioning with him treating the practices right now as his version of training camp. "Ain't God good man. He is. He is. It's a blessing just to be out there. Been watching for 300-plus days now. So when you [are] a guy like me that football is more than just a game to you, it's a way of life, you play with a passion and that energy. When you're able to do it again, you never take it for granted," Overshown said.He plans to […]
