Felipe Drugovich is set to make his long-awaited competitive
Formula E debut this summer, replacing Nyck de Vries at the Berlin
E-Prix. It has been reported by Motorsport Brazil that Drugovich
will take de Vries' seat at Mahindra for the Berlin double-header
in July, due to an event clash. De Vries is contracted to compete
for Toyota in the World Endurance Championship's Six Hours of São
Paulo, which falls on the same weekend (12-13 July). Drugovich was
spotted testing Mahindra's Gen3 Evo on Wednesday in Spain, at the
Circuito Guadix in Granada. The Aston Martin F1 reserve driver is
yet to race in a single-seater world championship since winning the
F2 title in 2022, but has made several prototype appearances.
Drugovich is not new to FE, having previously tested for Maserati
in multiple rookie tests. His Berlin appearance will be his first
in Mahindra colours. It has been an excellent start to the season
for the Banbury-based outfit, who sit fifth in the teams'
championship following an impressive display in the Miami E-Prix.
RacingNews365 has reached out to Mahindra to comment.
