Guenther joined Maserati MSG Racing at the start of Formula E’s GEN3 era and made history by becoming the first driver since Juan Manuel Fangio in 1957 to win a World Championship single-seater race for the Trident.
Alongside a further victory at the inaugural Tokyo E-Prix earlier in 2024, the German represented the team on the Formula E podium on six occasions, while also claiming two pole positions across 32 races.
“I’d like to thank Max and Jehan personally and on behalf of the Maserati Family for all their commitment and all the work they have done,” said Giovanni Sgro, Head of Maserati Corse.
“Both made contributions to the team’s achievements and did their best in every race to put both of the Maserati Tipo Folgore in the best possible positions. Max brought us so much excitement, taking the Trident back to the podium several times, whereas Jehan – the only rookie on the track in Season 10 – did an amazing job with his growth and had no hesitation in facing leading drivers with determination and passion.
“We’re proud to have had Max and Jehan with us, to have worked together and to have shared so much that will stay with us forever as part of Maserati’s history in Formula E. I’d like to wish them both a great future in motorsports”.
Daruvala, who became the first Indian racing driver to compete in World Championship motorsport since 2012 in Season 10, joined Maserati MSG Racing for Formula E’s most recent campaign and showed continual progression to secure two top 10 finishes in his time with the team.
“On behalf of the team I would like to sincerely thank Max and Jehan for the work they have put in over the course of Season 10,” said Jose M Aznar, Team Principal & Managing Partner, Maserati MSG Racing.
“Since joining the team in 2022, Max has played a critical role in our development and has been responsible for some of our biggest achievements in Formula E’s Gen3 era so far. Being a rookie in this championship is not easy however Jehan showed his speed over one lap right from the second round in Saudi Arabia.
“He was consistently quick in qualifying and towards the second half of the season he was regularly challenging for points. It has been a pleasure to watch Max and Jehan grow as part of our team, and we wish them nothing but the best for the future.”
The team are set to unveil their 2024/25 line-up on Monday 29 July.
