🇫🇷 Jean-Eric Vergne

Jean-Éric Vergne is an established professional racing driver with an FIA Platinum grading, competing primarily in Formula E for Citroën Racing and in the FIA World Endurance Championship for Peugeot TotalEnergies. He has contested 289 starts across 19 seasons of racing since 2008, winning 22 races and taking 65 podiums across multiple series.[1]

Vergne's career built through single-seater racing in Formula Renault Eurocup and Formula V8 3.5, where he took 10 wins and 23 podiums combined before moving into Formula 1 with Toro Rosso from 2012 to 2014. He has since established himself as a dominant force in Formula E, winning championships in 2017 and 2018 with Techeetah and accumulating 11 wins and 36 podiums across 137 starts in the series. His WEC career, which began in 2017 and continues through 2025, has yielded one win and six podiums from 39 starts in the world's premier endurance championship.[2]

In Formula E, Vergne races consistently at the front of a field including multiple world champions. He has repeatedly matched established professionals Sébastien Buemi and António Félix da Costa, both Platinum-graded drivers with their own world titles and significant endurance racing experience; the three form a cohort of comparable standing. In his 2025 WEC campaign, now seven rounds deep, Vergne holds eleventh in the championship standings with one podium finish from those races run to date.
