Formula E: Driver – plot overview
Formula E: Driver offers unfiltered access to the lives of four electric car racers, combining exclusive on- and off-track footage to give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the drama and intensity of Season 10.
Produced by Astronaut Films, Driver opens in Mexico, as reigning champion Jake Dennis returns from a summer of celebrations, hungry to retain his title. The series goes behind the visor to follow Dan Ticktum, whose 'bad boy' reputation has his future at Formula E hanging in the balance, before culminating in London's dramatic season finale, where five drivers, including Mitch Evans and António Félix da Costa, fiercely compete for the championship crown.
What the drivers and makers said about the show
António Félix da Costa, who drives under No. 13, said about the show, 'This documentary takes you completely behind the scenes, giving fans a raw and unfiltered look at what it means to be a racing driver. We've captured the highs, the heartbreaks, and everything in between—bringing viewers inside our world to experience the intensity, pressure, and passion that fuel our sport. Success and failure define motorsport, and with this series, we're pulling back the curtain to show it all."

Mitch Evans noted: 'The launch of Formula E: Driver is really exciting and hopefully the series will bring a new, unique insight into the world of Formula E. It was great to work with Astronaut Films and the Formula E team on this new venture, which we hope will allow fans to see just what it takes to compete in the world's most competitive motorsport, and enable our sport to grow and reach a much wider audience."
Jake Dennis added, 'Having the production team follow me throughout the entire season gave a true insight into what it's really like to be a Formula E driver—the highs, the lows, and everything in between.
Fans usually only see what happens on race day, but this series captures so much more. It's great to have documentaries like this that bring fans closer to the sport and show the reality of what it takes to compete at this level.'
Dan Ticktum also said, 'Filming Formula E: Driver was pretty intense, but I really enjoyed it. I like the fact that Formula E and all of the guys at Astronaut were very keen on having drivers express who they are.
A lot of the filming was very fun, and I was able to be myself a lot of the time. Hopefully, the series will give a good insight into what it's like being a

, and I hope that it's successful so we can continue to film for years to come.'
Aarti Dabas, Chief Media Officer, Formula E, said the series 'reveals the human stories behind the helmets of our hugely talented drivers that reach far beyond the sporting action on the track' She expressed her excitement as they bring the no-holds-barred, all-access perspective to a global audience on Prime Video.

Ride Along with Sergio Aguero in the GEN3 Evo
/ Jun 22, 2025, 10:06PM IST I just watched Sergio Agüero's onboard lap in the GEN3 Evo during Formula E's 'Evo Sessions' at Miami and wow, it's wild to see a football legend tackling a racecar! Guided by Pascal Wehrlein, you're there in the cockpit as Agüero wrestles the wheel through tight corners and long straights. You hear every shift and rev, and there's this adorable moment when he laughs mid-turn, not perfect, but refreshingly human. It's like watching your mate try something totally outside their comfort zone—and mostly nail it.
