Andretti Global announced that Zane Maloney and Jak Crawford have been named as Andretti Formula E’s representatives in the upcoming Season 10 rookie tests.
Maloney, Andretti Formula E’s official reserve and development driver, will take part in the Free Practice session at the 2024 Misano E-Prix in addition to the 2024 Berlin Rookie Test alongside Crawford, a fellow Formula 2 driver.
Maloney will make his fourth outing behind the wheel of Andretti Formula E’s Porsche 99X Electric at the 2024 Misano E-Prix, having already represented the team in Season 9 at the 2023 Berlin Rookie Test and the 2023 Rome E-Prix Free Practice 0 session as well as the Season 10 Pre-Season Test in Valencia.
The first ever Formula 2 driver from Barbados was announced as Andretti Formula E’s official reserve and development driver in November of last year and has since provided strategic support for the team with simulator development work at the team’s Banbury headquarters. Maloney began his 2024 Formula 2 campaign in Bahrain last month where he claimed back-to-back victories and leads the driver’s standings.
Crawford, who will make his Formula E debut at the 2024 Berlin Rookie Test, has enjoyed a long history of on-track success starting in karts before making his car racing debut in Formula 4 in 2018. After two years in FIA Formula 3, Crawford was promoted to Formula 2 quickly becoming a race winner at the Sprint race in Austria in 2023. Recently announced to the Aston Martin Young Driver Development program, Crawford will be the seventh American to participate in an official Formula E session joining fellow countrymen Marco Andretti, Matthew Brabham, Scott Speed, Oliver Askew, Colton Herta and Kyle Kirkwood, all of whom were also fielded by the Indianapolis-based Andretti squad.
The 2024 Misano E-Prix Free Practice 0 session featuring Maloney will take place on April 12 followed by the 2024 Berlin Rookie Test on May 13, where both Maloney and Crawford will be given the opportunity to demonstrate their skills behind the wheel of the Gen3 car.
