NEWS: Rookie Free Practice session set for Miami E-Prix weekend
Théo Pourchaire, Citroën Racing Formula E Team Rookie Driver, said: “I’m really happy to be returning to Formula E for the rookie test in Miami, and I can’t wait to take on another new track. The last time I drove the car was in Berlin in 2025, so it has been a little while, but I’ll be doing extensive simulator work with the team to make sure I’m as prepared as possible for the session.
"The Hard Rock Stadium circuit is new for everyone, so I’m looking forward to contributing to the team’s preparation and learning as much as I can in this unique environment.”
Cyril Blais, Citroën Racing Formula E Team Principal, added: “Théo has already demonstrated his talent and maturity in previous rookie sessions, and we’re delighted to welcome him back. He’s part of the family, and he delivered outstanding work for us in earlier tests. Miami presents a fresh challenge for every team, and his feedback will be invaluable as we look to build on the momentum from our successful opening rounds of the season.”
