Enzo Fittipaldi is set to embark on a fresh challenge in his racing career, having officially secured a race seat with the Lola team in Formula E. This move marks the Brazilian-American's return to the pinnacle of single-seater electric racing following a diverse path that included stints in Indy Nxt and various prototype championships.
Fittipaldi's career trajectory has been a test of versatility. After three seasons in Formula 2 and a venture into sportscar racing via the European Le Mans Series, the 25-year-old felt the time was right to return to his single-seater roots. His extensive background, which includes IndyCar testing and a deep understanding of open-wheel machinery, is viewed as a significant asset for the team as they navigate this new era of competition.
"I’m extremely excited to be joining Lola for my debut season in FE," Fittipaldi stated. "This is a big step forward in my racing career, and I’m incredibly grateful to the team for putting their trust in me and giving me this opportunity."

Reflecting on the legacy of his new team, he added, "Lola is a name with so much history and heritage in motorsport, and it’s a privilege to be part of this new chapter alongside Yamaha. I’m also thrilled to be joining the team at such an exciting time, with projects like the T70S bringing Lola’s iconic past into the future."
Lola team principal Mark Preston praised Fittipaldi's transition into the squad. Preston emphasized that Fittipaldi’s talent and technical understanding will be crucial in extracting the maximum performance from the T004 model. He noted that the driver's ability to work effectively alongside engineers will be a key differentiator during the upcoming season.
Looking ahead, Fittipaldi is preparing for the upcoming test in Madrid, where he aims to integrate closely with the team and build a solid foundation for the campaign. As he steps into the competitive world of Formula E, the racing community will be closely watching how this rising star adapts to the unique demands of all-electric racing.
