After the German Audi driver and former Mexico City race winner collided with the wall during the first Practice session earlier this morning, Daniel Abt will return to the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez to take part in the 2020 CBMM Niobium Mexico City E-Prix, according to an official Audi Sport statement.
Abt will start the race from the back of the grid as he was unable to take part in the second Practice and did not set a time in Qualifying.
UPDATE [2/2]: After a first analysis of what happened in FP1, it appears that @Daniel_Abt crashed due to a software communication problem. Although he was braking hard, the car didn't decelerate like it should. The problem has been fixed for the three other Audi e-tron FE06 cars. pic.twitter.com/2fOV2nAroR
