A familiar face in the Formula 1 paddock will be making the trip to Berlin in a fortnight for the Formula E rookie test.
Mercedes F1 reserve driver Frederik Vesti will compete in Formula E’s upcoming rookie test in Berlin for Andretti.
He previously drove for Mahindra in the same test last season at Tempelhof Airport Circuit but will now represent the American team.
Vesti will be joined by Jak Crawford, current Formula 2 driver and Andretti FE reserve.
Having not raced in a single-seater series since finishing second in F2 in 2023, Vesti has been competing in the IMSA SportsCar Championship for Cadillac Whelan.
Excited about the opportunity, Vesti stated, “I’m extremely happy and proud to be participating in the Rookie Test. It’s going to be a really exciting day for me to explore the all new GEN3 Evo, work with engineers and learn from the team.”
