Fittipaldi joins Lola for 2027 Formula E season

Lola Formula E has confirmed Enzo Fittipaldi as its second driver for the 2027 season, alongside Robert Shwartzman. It will be the Brazilian's first season in the all-electric championship, having previously taken part in the rookie test in Berlin in 2024.

Fittipaldi, a former Italian F4 champion and FRECA runner-up, raced in Formula 3 and Formula 2, taking two wins and 13 podiums in F2. He was a Red Bull junior in 2023 and this year finished runner-up in INDY NXT with four wins. He has already been running the Lola T004, working with Lola and technical partner Yamaha.

Team principal Mark Preston said Fittipaldi's experience across several single-seater categories would help him adapt to electric machinery. Fittipaldi's arrival also extends a family link with Lola, dating back to his grandfather Emerson Fittipaldi's use of the marque in 1970 and 1988.
