It's all change at Envision Racing as the team confirm the departure of Sébastien Buemi and Joel Eriksson at the end of the season.

Sébastien Buemi and Joel Eriksson to leave Envision Racing

The news comes ahead of the final rounds of the 2025/26 season at the London Excel, with the Envision squad entering the weekend 7th in the Teams' Championship. 

PREVIEW: Title decider in London for end of GEN3 era across Rounds 16 and 17

2015/16 Formula E champion, Sébastien Buemi, joined the British outfit at the start of the GEN3 era, bringing with him considerable experience and one of the most impressive stats sheets in the Formula E paddock. Despite not being able to replicate his title winning ways from seasons past, the Swiss driver still managed to achieve at least one podium per season - his best result with the team being victory at the 2025 Monaco E-Prix. 

This season, Buemi was joined in the Envision driver line-up by Formula E rookie, Joel Eriksson. Despite being a newcomer to the championship, the Swedish-born racer has quietly put together a respectable points haul this season, even achieving a podium at the 2026 Shanghai E-Prix, Round 13. 

Today's news results in two available seats at one of Formula E's oldest teams, with Envision Racing yet to reveal who will make up their all-new driver line-up for the 2026/27 season - the first of the GEN4 era.
