Nyck de Vries, Mahindra

“It is always really special to return to Berlin because I have so many fantastic memories here. I have missed the last few events in Berlin due to clashes with other series, so I am looking forward to racing here again, and for the first time in Mahindra colours.

“It’s been a tough few races in Jeddah and Madrid, but there’s definitely pace in the car. Hopefully we can use that to good effect in Berlin and start building some momentum for the rest of the season, which is going to come thick and fast in the next couple of months.”

Felipe Drugovich, Andretti

"I'm really looking forward to Berlin. Having driven the circuit in rookie tests and last year’s race, I’m heading there with a good level of positivity. It’s a massive plus to return to a track I already know for the first time in Formula E, and I’m aiming to capitalise on that.

"Even though we start from scratch when Free Practice 1 begins, that prior experience gives me a real boost. The objective for the doubleheader weekend is simple: score some points and help elevate the team in the standings.”

Joel Eriksson, Envision Racing

“It’ll be great to head back to the circuit I had my first ever race with the team at. We had a good weekend last time here together, and I’m excited to be back in Berlin to build on my season so far.”

Antonio Felix da Costa, Jaguar TCS Racing

"It’s been a special run of races for me, and I’m really proud of what we’ve achieved together as a team. Back‑to‑back wins don’t happen without everyone pulling in the same direction, and that’s exactly the environment we have right now. Berlin is a place I’ve always enjoyed racing, and coming in with this momentum just adds to the excitement. We’re fully focused on the championship, and I’m ready to fight for another strong result."
