Mouser-Backed DS PENSKE Formula E Team Rolls into South Africa for Cape Town E-Prix
February 22, 2023 – Mouser Electronics, Inc., the New Product Introduction (NPI) leader™ empowering innovation, will be cheering on the DS Penske Formula E racing team in Cape Town, South Africa, for round 5 of the 2022-23 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

The track will wind its way through Cape Town's Green Point and Waterfront districts, with the flowing lines of this new street circuit expected to be one of the fastest on the Season 9 calendar and a true test for the all-new 350kW Gen3 E-TENSE FE23. Team drivers for the Cape Town race are Season 8 Champion Stoffel Vandoorne and two-time Formula E Champion Jean-Éric Vergne, fresh off his first-place win in Hyderabad, India.
