MORTARA AND GUNTHER TO FRONT MASERATI FE PROGRAMME
The rebranded Venturi Formula E team, which will carry Maserati colours in 2023, will be headed up by remaining driver Edoardo Mortara and new recruit Max Gunther.
Mortara finished third in the standings for Venturi in 2022 with four victories while Gunther will switch over from the Nissan e.dams operation. The German was 19th in the 2021-2022 table after a disappointing campaign.
“As a half-Italian it’s a privilege and a pleasure to be welcome to be joining Maserati,” said Mortara.
“I’ve had the pleasure to drive all three generations of Formula E car, and [the Gen3] is obviously an evolution of the Gen2 car.
“We’re pushing EV technology development, I cannot wait actually to be racing with the Gen3 car in Mexico.”
The new season gets underway in Mexico City on January 14, 2023.
