Mahindra sees Maini as future Formula E driver, but winning comes before nationality: Bertrand

LONDON: (Aug 14) Mahindra Racing CEO and Team Principal Frederic Bertrand says Kush Maini has the potential to become team’s Formula E driver in the future but made it clear that they will not compromise on its competitive ambitions simply to have an Indian behind the wheel.

Maini, who is Mahindra’s reserve driver while also competing in Formula 2, has been involved with the team’s development programme and has regularly attended races to familiarise himself with the demands of Formula E. He, though, did not get a race in the 2025-26 season.

Karun Chandhok remain the only Indian to have driven for Mahindra since the inaugural season in 2014.
