Following the announcement of her multi-year deal with the iconic Japanese marque, Abbi completed her first official FIA Formula E Rookie Test with the team at the 2.374km Berlin Templehof Circuit.
This was Abbi’s first time in the Nissan e-4ORCE 05, since securing the fastest time in the All-Women’s test in Madrid last November.
Despite feeling ‘under the weather’, Abbi completed 98 laps over the course of the two sessions during the day – covering over 232.65km of testing mileage for the team.
She successfully completed all elements of the team’s ambitious program for the day - as they explored new items for the final round of the season at London, alongside developments for the 2026 season.
Abbi set a fastest time of a 58.457s in the afternoon session, which was a lap-time good enough for P6 on the grid for the EPrix - which took place one day earlier.
Abbi Pulling:
"It was a really productive day with Nissan! I was doing a lot of the test items for the team to take forward into London and Season 12 as well.
This morning was mainly race running and then this afternoon was more aimed at pushing with the testing items involved.”
“I think overall the pace has been pretty good and there was definitely a bit more if I fully put a lap together – which would have looked a bit better on the timesheets, but ultimately a few too many mistakes on my end - means there is definitely more to come!”
“I have been struggling a little bit since being whilst out here in Berlin being a bit ill – but it has been really great being on track with the team -especially after such a monumental weekend for them, clinching the Driver’s Championship with Oliver yesterday!”
“I really enjoy working with everyone at Nissan again and I am looking forward to continue my learning and development further with them going forward.”
Following her first appearance in FIA Formula E machinery in 2025, attention now shifts to Round 5 of the 2025 GB3 Championship – where Abbi will return home to Silverstone on the 2-3 August.
