Andretti Formula E
Indianapolis,  USA
Andretti is a mainstay of Formula E, as an entrant since the inaugural 2014/15 campaign. Jake Dennis delivered a Drivers' title to the American outfit at the dawn of the GEN3 era. The Brit continues with Andretti for their 10th season in Formula E and will be partnered by Norman Nato for 2024.

The outfit had partnered with BMW across three campaigns – the German marque a fixture of Formula E from the championship's inception to the end of Season 7. Alongside providing the entire fleet of safety and official cars, the Bavarian car giant became a full manufacturer works team ahead of the 2018/19 season when it partnered up with Andretti Formula E.

BMW had provided the Andretti outfit with technical assistance during the 2017/18 season, where Antonio Felix da Costa secured the team's best result of a sixth-place finish in the first race of the season in Hong Kong. Despite the promising start, the team went on to finish last overall in the championship with just 24 points. Becoming a full manufacturer team ahead of the 2018/19 season, the team fielded Da Costa and newcomer Alexander Sims behind the wheel of its Gen2 challenger, the BMW iFE.18.

The team and car made its debut appearance in pre-season testing in Valencia ahead of the opening race of the 2018/19 season. Rounding off its first campaign as a works team with a fifth-place finish, BMW signed former Dragon driver Maximilian Guenther for the 2019/20 season, to replace Da Costa, while retaining Alex Sims for a second season.

Guenther pipped Sims in the Drivers' Championship, finishing ninth, with victories in Santiago and Round 8 at Tempelhof. The German's four non-finishes - including the loss of a podium in Berlin for overtaking under the safety car - ultimately hampered his outright finishing position. Sims, meanwhile, closed out the season, and his time with BMW, in 13th.

The team ran it so close in Season 7. Rookie Jake Dennis was undoubtedly one of the season's star drivers, outshining another young hotshot in teammate Guenther with a victory in Valencia - where the Brit managed his energy beyond all expectations to win from the front - and another on home soil in London.

A technical glitch unceremoniously brought his title charge to an end in the final round. Without that, he could well have pipped Nyck de Vries to the top spot. Third was mighty impressive nonetheless, and BMW i bowed out of Formula E for now in the style we've long been accustomed to; with the taste of the winners' Moet and Chandon still fresh.

Dennis returned for Season 8, while American Oliver Askew joined with IndyCar experience under his belt - flying the flag for the USA. Dennis picked up where he left off with silverware in Diriyah and remained at the sharp end of the Drivers’ table over the course of the season. A win and a second place at the London double-header was undoubtedly his highlight.

The team brought in the experienced head of Andre Lotterer to partner Dennis for the start of the GEN3 era. The American outfit could not have asked for a better start to the campaign, as Dennis kicked the season off with a win in the opening round in Mexico City.

After a small dip in form in the middle of the season, Dennis found his early season pace to mount a strong title charge in the second half of the campaign. Between rounds 8-16, the British driver only missed out on the podium once, a P4 in Rome. This consistency powered him to his and Andretti’s maiden Drivers’ Championship. In the process, Dennis broke the record for the most podiums in a Formula E season, appearing in the top three a whopping 11 times throughout the 16 races.

Season 10 has seen Andretti partner defending champion Dennis with French driver Norman Nato, as it looks to mount a more consistent push for the Teams’ Championship. While the team, particularly Dennis, has shown flashes of strong pace during the season, it hasn’t been enough to match the front-running teams, just yet.
