Motorsport Week takes a look at the drivers who have committed to FIA Formula E’s Berlin double-header in May over

The Formula E drivers were trying to make it from Spa to Berlin in time for the second race of the weekend. A unanimous decision from all teams was needed in an e-vote during the Sao Paulo E-Prix last weekend. Five teams voted against, so the drivers had to decide where to race between the ninth and 12th of May. DS Penske confirmed that their drivers, Stoffel Vandoorne and Jean-Eric Vergne, will prioritize Berlin, while Edoardo Mortara from Mahindra Racing is expected to do the same. Antonio Felix da Costa of Tag Heuer Porsche announced he would leave WEC racing to focus on Formula E. Envision Racing faces the most significant impact, with Sebastien Buemi and Robin Frijns choosing to fulfill their WEC commitments. Mortara’s teammate Nyck de Vries and ABT Cupra’s Nico Mueller are still unsure, possibly heading to Spa. Three teams are now seeking reserve drivers to fill the vacant spots.
