Vergne J.(Pontoise, France, 25/04/1990)

Jean-Eric Vergne (Jean-Eric Serge Raymond Vergne) was born on 25 April 1990 in Pontoise, France, and built his career by progressing rapidly from karting to European single-seaters, eventually reaching Formula 1 before establishing himself as a benchmark driver in Formula E.

After his karting years, his first major title came in 2007 with Formula Renault Campus. His development continued through Formula Renault 2.0 and then in 2010 with victory in the British Formula 3 Championship with Carlin. In 2011 he took a further step forward in Formula Renault 3.5, finishing the season as runner-up and confirming himself as one of the most solid profiles of the Red Bull Junior Team.

His arrival in Formula 1 materialised in 2012 with Toro Rosso, the team with which he raced for three seasons (2012-2014). Over this period he contested 58 Grands Prix, scored points on several occasions and achieved a best result of sixth place finishes, in a technical context that saw Toro Rosso consistently in the midfield. At the end of 2014 he left the grid as a race driver; in 2015 he entered Ferrari’s orbit, working as a test and simulator driver and contributing to car development.

From 2014-2015 he simultaneously launched his Formula E career, becoming the first driver to win two consecutive titles: champion in 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 with Techeetah, a result that established him as a two-time champion of the electric series. In the following years he continued to be a regular front-runner, alternating title-contending seasons with technical rebuilding phases, while remaining a reference figure for experience and race management.

Alongside his Formula E activity, Vergne also developed an endurance racing programme. In 2025 he is listed among the Peugeot TotalEnergies drivers in the FIA WEC, competing in the Hypercar programme. This dual commitment (electric single-seaters and prototypes) is one of the defining features of his post-F1 career.

Regarding current sporting activity, for the 2025-2026 Formula E season (Season 12) Vergne is announced as a race driver for Citroen Racing within the Stellantis Group project, alongside team-mate Nick Cassidy.
