2018/19 Formula E line-up so far

Stoffel Vandoorne has nixed IndyCar for the Mercedes Formula E team where he will be paid to drive instead of having to buy a ride in IndyCar.

Vandoorne will complete a day of running with HWA (future Mercedes Formula E team) at the Ricardo Tormo track before traveling to Austin to take part in the US Grand Prix with McLaren.
