The newly branded Citroën Racing is set for its 2026 on-track debut in Formula E, securing two-time series champion Jean-Éric Vergne and former Jaguar TCS driver Nick Cassidy for its lineup.

Vergne joins Citroën after spending the past eight seasons under the DS banner. While switching teams, he will remain within the Stellantis family, as Citroën is a subsidiary of the brand, rebranded from Maserati MSG.

His new teammate, Nick Cassidy, makes the move after three seasons with Jaguar. Earlier this month, Cassidy also announced plans to compete in the World Endurance Championship with Peugeot next season, further cementing his transition into the Stellantis stable.

Together, Vergne and Cassidy bring an impressive résumé: 22 Formula E victories, 63 podium finishes, and 23 pole positions. Vergne remains the only two-time champion in series history, while Cassidy has come close to the crown, finishing a career-best second in both 2022–23 and 2024–25.

Citroën, alongside Vergne and Cassidy, will make its first appearance on track this October during Formula E’s annual test at Circuit Ricardo Tormo in Valencia, running from October 27–30.
