Top 3 drivers to watch out for in diriyah
Jean-Eric Vergne
With two championship titles to his name, the charismatic Frenchman will be feeling the pressure as a wanted man. Days after clinching the title in New York City, his teammate, mentor and good friend Andre Lotterer, left to join new rivals Porsche. In his place came one of the finest drivers in the field – Antonio Felix da Costa.
Nyck de Vries
New kid on the block Nyck de Vires – fresh from claiming the Formula Two championship title – bucked the trend and chose the all-electric series over Formula One. Now signed to the mighty Mercedes-Benz name, all eyes will be on the young challenger as he takes on the electric racing elite.
Andre Lotterer
After parting ways with his former teammate and friend Jean-Eric Vergne, the German took up a seat at motorsport masters Porsche. Equipped with insider knowledge from top team DS Techeetah and a ruthless driving style, Lotterer looks like the number one challenger, despite not having a Formula E win to his name. Is it his year to add a Formula E title to his three death-defying Le Mans wins?
