Description

The Techeetah Formula E Team (pronounced ‘Ta-chi-ta’) is a Chinese motor racing team under ownership of SECA - China Media Capital that competes in the electric racing series, Formula E.

The team entered the sport following the acquisition of Team Aguri in 2016.

In July 2016, Jean-Eric Vergne and Qinghua Ma (who competed with Team Aguri in the final rounds of the previous season prior to CMC's takeover) were confirmed as the team's drivers. With Renault providing powertrains for Techeetah's debut season, Vergne scored the team's maiden podium with a second place at the Buenos Aires ePrix. In March 2017, Techeetah announced former F1 driver Esteban Gutiérrez would replace Ma from round four onwards. However, after Gutierrez left the team after only three races after being given an opportunity with Dale Coyne Racing to compete in the IndyCar Series, the team then signed Stéphane Sarrazin to compete with the team for the remainder of the season.

André Lotterer joined the team for the 2017/2018 season and embarked on a points-scoring season and two podiums in his rookie season, helping the team to nearly clinching the 2017/2018 Teams' Title. Jean-Éric Vergne won the 2017/2018 Drivers' Title with one race to spare.
