Formula E: António Félix da Costa on promotional tour in New York.

29.01.2017: BMW works driver António Félix da Costa (PRT) spent two days in New York (USA) last week to promote the debut of the FIA Formula E

BMW works driver António Félix da Costa (PRT) spent two days in New York (USA) last week to promote the debut of the FIA Formula E Championship in the “Big Apple”.



Races nine and ten of the season will take place on 15th and 16th July in the district of Brooklyn, which boasts a spectacular view of the Manhattan skyline.



Félix da Costa took his Formula E powerhouse onto the track for a demonstration – and with big-name support: American Football star Victor Cruz (USA) of the NFL team New York Giants took the opportunity to get a taste of Formula E before the races in July.



 Félix da Costa continued his promotional tour in New York with a host of media appointments. “We’ve had good experiences so far in Formula E with how we approach new cities,” said Félix da Costa.



 “I think New York is going to raise the bar on any other city. I can’t wait to race here for real in July.”
