Nico Prost becomes the first champion of electrical car races after clinching the Andros Electrical Trophy title, one weekend before the end of the championship. Nico scored an impressive 5 poles out of 6 qualifyings, won five races and climbed on the podium 16 times in 18 races. The electrical cars developped by Exagon Engineering proved to be fast and reliable, lapping on average only three seconds slower than the 400 hp petrol cars.
Nico: "I am of course very happy about that title. I did not think that I would be able to win on ice in my first year as I had to fight real specialists such as Franck Lagorce or Stéphane Ortelli. I really enjoyed driving on ice and I would really like to come back next year. I was really amazed by the electrical cars: the quality of the racing proved that we can race with new technologies, promote greener racing and preserve the environment. Now I am going to turn my focus to my main LMP1 program and try to win Le Mans and Le Mans Series."
