Nasr plugs back into single-seaters with Formula E

Ex-Sauber driver Felipe Nasr, who left Formula 1 at the end of 2016, is making his Formula E debut this weekend in Mexico City.

With opportunities in F1 or IndyCar few and far between, the Brazilian kept his motorsport career going by competing last year in the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship and winning the Drivers' championship for Action Express Racing.

However, with Dragon's deal with Maximilian Guenther terminated after three races, an opportunity arose for Nasr to get back into single -seater racing.

"GEOX Dragon is certainly looking very strong with its new Gen 2 car, and I think the whole team has done a great job understanding the keys to performance and how to get the best out of their in-house developed package straight away," Nasr said.

"I am also very excited to work alongside someone like Jay Penske, who wants to succeed in every aspect of the sport and who brings the right energy into the team."

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
