Kelvin van der Linde will replace Frijns again in South Africa

Injured in the wrist during the Mexico ePrix, Robin Frijns had already withdrawn from the Indian round held in Hyderabad where he was replaced by Kelvin van der Linde.

The Dutch driver will also leave the wheel of his car ABT Cupra to the South African driver in the next race of the season. The latter will therefore have the opportunity to ride at home, during the Cape Town ePrix (South Africa), on February 25. Robin Frijns will focus on his rehabilitation before taking part in the season opener of the WEC, on March 17, in Sebring (United States), with WRT.

« I want to be back in the car as soon as possible. I feel comfortable in the simulator and I don't feel pain. Nevertheless, we decided to give more to hand to make it completely cared for. I thank Kelvin for his flexibility and wish him the best for his home race ", said Robin Frijns.
