NELSON PIQUET JR AND MITCH EVANS TO ELECTRIFY PANASONIC JAGUAR RACING

NELSON PIQUET JR AND MITCH EVANS TO ELECTRIFY PANASONIC JAGUAR RACING

Date: 2017-09-28

Panasonic Jaguar Racing has announced inaugural FIA Formula E Champion Nelson Piquet Jr as the newest member of the team at an exclusive live show hosted at Jaguar's UK Design headquarters.

Piquet will join Panasonic Jaguar Racing drivers Mitch Evans and Ho-Pin Tung this month for the team's second season in Formula E. The addition of the defending champion to the driver line-up will put the team in a strong position for the start of season four when official testing gets under way in Valencia next month.

Nelson Piquet Jr said: "It's a great honour to join Panasonic Jaguar Racing. Jaguar has such a strong history in motorsport and it's an exciting time to become part of the team. Their commitment to electric motorsport is inspiring and I'm looking forward to working with the team."

Mitch Evans said: "After such a great season it's fantastic to be continuing with Panasonic Jaguar Racing in season four. As a team, we are moving in the right direction, and I can't wait for the kick off in Hong Kong."

The announcement was made at Jaguar's live RE:CHARGE event alongside the reveal of the team's new racecar. The reveal of the Jaguar I-TYPE 2 comes nine days after Jaguar Racing announced it will launch the Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY, the world's first all-electric international race series for production-based cars. The history-making championship will support Formula E, starting in late 2018. These latest developments reinforce Jaguar's long-term commitment to and development of premium battery electric vehicles.
