Laser cooling at storage rings has proven to be a powerful technique to obtain ion with a very small relative longitudinal momentum spread (1E-6 range). This contribution will give an overview of the principle and status of bunched beam laser cooling at the experimental storage ring ESR at GSI, Germany. Results from a recent laser cooling beamtime in May 2021 at the ESR will be presented, where broadband laser cooling of bunched relativistic C3+ ion beams was successfully demonstrated for the first time using a sophisticated pulsed UV laser system with a very high repetition rate (~ MHz), variable pulse durations (166 - 735 ps) and high UV power (> 250 mW).
