French-Argentinian driver Sacha Fenestraz was initially expected to continue with the team for a third season, despite a challenging previous season where he was outperformed by his teammate Oliver Rowland. However, it seems that the Japanese manufacturer is now planning to replace Fenestraz, with rumors suggesting that free agent Norman Nato might make a return to the team. Fenestraz expressed disappointment at the sudden change in plans, mentioning the difficulties he now faces in securing another seat in Formula E due to most spots being already filled. While options like ERT and ABT-Lola exist, the chances of him landing a spot with those teams seem slim given the lateness of the situation. Nevertheless, Fenestraz is also exploring opportunities in the World Endurance Championship and potentially returning to racing in Japan. Nissan is expected to reveal their driver line-up in the coming week, according to reports.
