The single-seater electric racing championship grid is shaping up rapidly as Robert Shwartzman has been officially confirmed as the newest driver for the Lola team. This exciting announcement narrows down the remaining open seats on the grid, leaving just one final vacant spot to be filled inside the team's garage ahead of the new campaign.
Shwartzman brings an impressive racing pedigree to the electric series, highlighted by his 2019 Formula 3 championship title and a strong runner-up finish in Formula 2 the following year. His extensive background as a test driver for Scuderia Ferrari between 2021 and 2024 further solidified his engineering feedback capabilities before transitioning to the World Endurance Championship with Peugeot.
Beyond his success in Europe, Shwartzman stunned the motorsport world by claiming a remarkable pole position as a rookie at the prestigious Indianapolis 500 with Prema. This proven versatility across different premier motorsport disciplines cements his status as an exceptionally strong rookie contender ready to tackle the technological demands of the GEN4 era.
Sharing his excitement about stepping into the electric championship, Shwartzman expressed his eagerness to get behind the wheel. "I am genuinely thrilled to join the Formula E grid and start this new chapter with Lola. After not racing full-time previously, I missed the competition deeply, and taking on a dual program with WEC makes it even more exciting," said Robert Shwartzman.
Lola Team Principal Mark Preston welcomed the new signing with high expectations as the squad prepares for the future. "Robert's results and experience speak for themselves, and we are delighted to welcome him. His proven ability to adapt quickly to diverse racing categories makes him an extremely promising profile for the GEN4 era," stated Mark Preston.
