Andre Lotterer

Andre Lotterer was considered one of Germany's greatest racing talents for many years. Born in Duisburg, Germany, he emigrated to Japan in 2003, where he won the Super GT title in 2006 and 2009. In 2011 he won the Japanese Formula Nippon (now Super Formula). From 2012 Lotterer competed in the LMP1 class of WEC; initially for Audi, then for Porsche until 2017. He became World Endurance Champion in his very first season. He also won the Le Mans 24 Hours with Audi in 2011, 2012 and 2014.

In September 2017, Lotterer signed a Formula E contract with the Chinese private team Techeetah for the 2017/18 season, receiving a one-year contract with an option for a further season, which he would also contest for the racing team - now with factory support from DS Automobiles. His performance at the 2018 Santiago E-Prix is unforgettable, when he collided with teammate Jean-Eric Vergne in the battle for victory and both still ended up scoring the first one-two for any team in Formula E history.

In 2019/20, Lotterer moved to the new Porsche team, where he scored the first podium for the Zuffenhausen-based company in the very first race of the season. Lotterer finished each of his first three Formula E seasons in eighth place overall. After only managing twelfth place overall in 2022, he concentrated on endurance racing, where he drove Porsche's new LMDh car. In addition, he is contesting the 2023 Formula E season as a driver for Porsche's new customer team Avalanche Andretti.

At the end of the season, he ended his career in formula racing to concentrate fully on WEC. However, he remains a reserve driver for the Porsche works team.
