There are clear-cut guidelines for the way Porsche Motorsport provides support to Avalanche Andretti. The goal of the new Gen3 regulations in Formula E is to lighten the load on customer teams by minimising their own contributions to developments. At the same time, Porsche Motorsport expects to gain from this, for example through additional test days and a greater amount of vehicle data. A successful collaboration with a customer team always comes with additional efforts such as the delivery of components and technical support. The trust that Avalanche Andretti brings to the new partnership confirms this philosophy for Porsche Motorsport. In many racing series, the outfit from Weissach has shown that it can help customer teams advance. Porsche Motorsport has a long tradition of supporting customer teams. We remain focused on the rest of this season.” Customer racing enjoys a long tradition at Porsche We are looking forward to starting Gen3 as a formidable competitor.
It was vital that we made a strong choice in our powertrain provider in preparation for this new chapter and exciting generation of car – and we have that in Porsche.
Roger Griffiths, Team Principal, Avalanche Andretti Formula E, said: “Season 9 will be an important year for our team and the series. Our history with Porsche as two historic racing teams means this collaboration was a natural fit, and we look forward to a new chapter starting in 2023.” The agreement is an important step in our future and commitment to our sport, partners, and fans. Avalanche Andretti FE has an ambition to win, and with the support of Porsche, we have full confidence in our performance and growth. Michael Andretti, CEO and Chairman, Andretti Autosport, said: “Our Formula E journey began with Season 1 and we’re very proud to now be looking ahead to the next generation of the sport. We’re delighted that the tradition is continuing in Formula E and we hope our partnership will be just as successful.” Roger Griffiths, Team Principal Avalanche Andretti Formula E, and Thomas Laudenbach, Vice President Porsche Motorsport
Porsche and Andretti are united by a long tradition, and it all started when Mario and Michael made their Le Mans debuts in a Porsche 956 in 1983. For us, it’s a huge vote of confidence that one of the most experienced teams has chosen to work alongside Porsche from season 9 onwards and wants to field two Porsche 99X Electric racers. “Avalanche Andretti has raced in Formula E since the inaugural 2014 season. “It’s important for us to support a customer team that demonstrates the same passion and professionalism in Formula E as we do,” says Thomas Laudenbach, Vice President Porsche Motorsport. The collaboration between Porsche and the team founded by the American racing driver Michael Andretti was announced on Friday on the eve of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship in Berlin.
