This soccer star experiences the pinnacle of electric racing.
While many consider Formula 1 to be the premier venue for racing excellence and intensity, Formula E is proving to many fans that electric vehicles can deliver a similar level of drama and thrill on the track. The TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team is one of the premier forces on the Formula E grid, and as part of a new series called “Evo Sessions,” the team will put numerous celebrities behind the wheel of its formidable electric race cars.
One of those is Sergio Agüero, a former professional soccer player for Manchester City, hailing from Argentina. With the team training him to become a racing driver, the collaboration will culminate in Agüero driving in a special Formula E event on a variant of the Miami Grand Prix track in March. With its acceleration from 0-60 in under two seconds, the guidance of Porsche’s Formula E Driver and world champion Pascal Wehrlein is paramount.
As he embarks on his journey from being a world-renowned soccer player to becoming a serious Porsche Formula E racing driver, Sergio Agüero’s progress will be documented on Porsche Motorsport’s social channels. For fans of his soccer career and fans of Formula E alike, this new adventure will certainly be exciting to see unfold.
