Arthur Leclerc and Théo Pourchaire prepare for the FIA Formula E rookie test in Berlin with Maserati MSG Racing.
Offering a glimpse into the next generation of racing talent, the duo will represent the team behind the wheel of the Maserati Tipo Folgore in the one-day test that immediately follows the double-header Berlin E-Prix weekend on July 12/13. Berlin marks the penultimate race weekend of the season ahead of the double-header finale in London later in the month.
French 2023 Formula 2 Champion Théo previously impressed during the rookie FP0 session in Jeddah and now returns to the Maserati MSG Racing fold with further opportunity to demonstrate his skill and gain experience behind the wheel of the Gen3 Evo.
Monégasque native Arthur, meanwhile, rejoins the team with strong historic ties, having been part of the family during the team’s time as Venturi Racing. Arthur originally joined the team as a development driver in 2017, progressing to test and reserve driver roles for the 2019-2020 season. He also participated in the Formula E rookie test in Marrakech in 2019.
Their selection reflects Maserati MSG Racing’s ongoing commitment to nurturing talent, reinforcing the team’s vision for future competitiveness. As a former Formula E rookie, current Maserati MSG Racing driver, Jake Hughes is proof that these opportunities have a genuine role to play in promoting the next generation of racing drivers.
This season, Maserati MSG Racing has demonstrated front-running pace, with Jake Hughes securing the third spot on the podium in Saudi Arabia and Stoffel Vandoorne claiming a memorable victory in Tokyo. The team’s results underline a strong foundation as it continues to push for excellence both on and off the track.
