The Envision Racing team has been a part of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship for over a decade now. Currently the Team Champions, the Silvertsone-based squad is preparing for the tenth season of the electric racing series with their drivers Sebastien Buemi and Robin Frijns. They’ve won E-Prix in all but one season, and despite a few name changes and new liveries, have remained a key part of Formula E’s history. 

Here are all the times they stood on the top step of the podium over the last decade! 

Win #1: 2014 Putrajaya E-Prix (Sam Bird)

Then named Virgin Racing, Sam Bird won the second race of the championship for the team in Malaysia.
