Felix Rosenqvist:

 I’m happy to be back with the guys at Mahindra Racing again for Riyadh. It will be a special occasion, marking the start of an exciting new era for Formula E with the commencement of Season 5. Whilst I didn’t attend the official pre-season test in Valencia, I did a lot of running in the new car during its development stages this summer, so I should be prepared. I’m looking forward to getting back to work with the team once again and will do my best to help launch us into the new season with success.

Dilbagh Gill:

We are delighted that Felix will be racing for Mahindra in Saudi Arabia in December. Felix has always been, and continues to be, a fantastic asset to Mahindra Racing and an important part of our family and history: we are looking forward to sharing more success with him in Saudi Arabia. He is extremely motivated, as are we, to secure the best possible results for the team as we begin our 2018/19 campaign. Working alongside Jérôme, we have a huge amount of Formula E success and experience to get started with; five race wins from the two of them. We are then looking ahead to January when Pascal will join us. We are enthused and motivated as a whole team and cannot wait to hit the track in December.
