The people behind #ZFRaceEngineering Without the People Behind ZF Race Engineering, the business would not excel in #team spirit. Today we introduce another member of that team, Fabian Göbel. Starting his career as an apprentice as a warehouse #logistics specialist in 2020, Fabian moved to the position of a material logistics clerk with ZF Race Engineering in the summer of 2023. It was no challenge for Fabian to describe how he feels about working at ZF, “I am at ZF Race because I am fascinated by the dynamics and innovative spirit in #motorsport. As a clerk in material logistics, I can fully realise and ensure my #passion for logistics and efficient processes. My areas of responsibility are very varied. No two days are the same and it never gets boring. My tasks range from goods receiving and warehousing to order picking and dispatch. Last but not least, I am motivated by the impact of my work on the success of the company. The #responsibility of ensuring that all materials arrive on time and in perfect condition is crucial for a wide variety of projects and contributes significantly to customer satisfaction. This responsibility motivates me to always give my best.” At ZF it is not all hard work and no play, Fabian continued by remarking, “Working in a close team with a wide range of colleagues is an essential part of my job. Together, we overcome a wide range of #challenges efficiently and support each other to achieve the best results. We also meet up regularly outside of work, for example to go bowling, have barbecues or go jogging together during our lunch break. These activities strengthen our team spirit and promote a positive working atmosphere.” Ever developing employees competences, Fabian is currently also training to become a logistics systems #specialist at the IHK in Würzburg. We wish him every success in his career development journey within ZF Race Engineering. One team, one goal: the Best for the Best.

Congratulations to ABT Sportsline GmbH on their best weekend since they returned to Formula E one and a half year ago!    The team took home 18 points from the double-header in Portland thanks to Nico Mueller’s fantastic P5 on Saturday, which he followed up with P6 on Sunday. Fingers crossed the team can carry that form through to the season finale in London 🤞 

"24 hours, especially at the Nürburgring ‘Green Hell,’ means you have to develop your products for this kind of extreme usage." Reflecting on the 24 Hours of Nürburgring, we are proud to have been there for our #customers and #partners on site. Being present at one of the world's largest #motorsport events, which attracted over 245,000 visitors, offered us invaluable opportunities to support our partners.

Last weekend, #ZFTradition was part of the Solitude Revival in Stuttgart, a spectacular event celebrating #automotive history. The event attracted thousands of historic motorbikes and cars fans to the Glemseck over the weekend despite the rain on Saturday. Around 400 historic formula cars, racing motorbikes, pre-war automobiles and prototypes were on display. It was excellent to see that many of the vehicles were equipped with ZF parts and it was great to connect with industry #experts and #enthusiasts. The Solitude Revival is a fantastic reminder of the importance of preserving our automotive heritage while looking forward to future innovations.
