Enzo Fittipaldi secures final seat at Lola Formula E

Here is the piece of news you were waiting for: Enzo Fittipaldi has locked down the final seat at Lola Formula E, completing their driver line-up in stunning fashion. The grandson of two-time Formula One World Champion Emerson Fittipaldi brings an extensive single-seater CV to the garage, having launched his European ladder journey through the Ferrari Driver Academy before clinching the 2018 Italian F4 Championship and taking runner-up honours in the 2019 Formula Regional European Championship.

That foundation led him straight through FIA Formula 3 and into the FIA Formula 2 Championship, where he stacked up multiple race victories and a plethora of podiums. After an LMP2 campaign in the 2025 European Le Mans Series, the young Brazilian headed Stateside to contest Indy NXT, establishing himself right at the front and ultimately finishing runner-up in the series.

“Enzo is a great fit for Lola Formula E, bringing experience from a range of single seater series that will prove beneficial as he transitions to all-electric racing,

While this marks his maiden campaign competing in Formula E, it is not his first taste of the electric machinery. He previously sampled the machinery at the 2024 Berlin Rookie Test with Jaguar TCS Racing, and in preparation for his GEN4 debut, he has already been busy testing the Lola T004 while working hand-in-hand with Lola and technical partner Yamaha.

“I’m extremely excited to be joining Lola for my debut season in Formula E,” said Enzo Fittipaldi. “This is a big step forward in my racing career, and I’m incredibly grateful to the team for putting their trust in me and giving me this opportunity.” He added, “Lola is a name with so much history and heritage in motorsport, and it’s a privilege to be part of this new chapter alongside Yamaha. I’m also thrilled to be joining the team at such an exciting time, with projects like the T70S bringing Lola’s iconic past into the future. I can’t wait to get behind the wheel for the first time at our upcoming test in Madrid, start working closely with the team, and build towards a strong first season together.”

Mark Preston, Lola Formula E Team Principal, made his stance crystal clear on the new signing. “Enzo is a great fit for Lola Formula E, bringing experience from a range of single seater series that will prove beneficial as he transitions to all-electric racing,” Preston said. “He has the talent, work ethic and technical understanding to be a great asset as we enter this new era for the sport and during testing he has shown a strong ability to work effectively alongside the engineers to help us extract as much performance as possible from the T004.”
