On the latest episode of The Race Formula E podcast Andretti Formula E team principal Roger Griffiths joins Sam Smith and Andrew van de Burgt to talk about how the team that took Jake Dennis to the 2023 title will set out to defend the crown this coming season.

Griffiths gives intriguing insights in to the challenges that Formula E faces in the second season of Gen3 racing, including the anticipated introduction of fast charging pit stops.

Also discussed is the recent test in Mallorca that put some new Hankook tyres through its paces and ran the Gen3 car with an active front powertrain kit for the first time ever.

Griffiths also gives insight in to the choice of Norman Nato as Dennis’ teammate for the new season and how an often fractious relationship with manufacturer mothership Porsche has been soothed in the off-season.

Smith and van de Burgt also mull over the second Formula E silly season centred around senior technical staff, and as ever, stew and procrastinate over the ever-shifting 2024.calendar.
