Ex-Toro Rosso Formula 1 driver Brendon Hartley helped Porsche carry out its latest FIA Formula E test aheaꦉd of its 2019-20 entry to the championship.

The German marque completed a three-day test at the C🔯alafat circuit in Spain, with Hartley and Neel Jani racking up more than 1000km of running between them.

Porsche will join the all-electric series for season six, while fellow German manufacturer Mercꦰedes h🐭as already started its FE development programme ahead of its own foray into the championship in 2019-20.

“Testing the car on track has been both 🌄an enjoyable and challenging experience,” said Hartley, who was named a Porsche factory driver last winter following his F1 exit.

“It is, of course, enjoyable to drive the car, however, contributing and working with the talented gr💦oup of people at Porsche on this project is also a real pleasure♊.”

Jani, who contested two FE races for Dragon at the start of the 2017-18 season, completed an initial shakedown test for Porsche at ꧙its test facility in Weissach last month and has already been confirmed as one of its drivers for its maiden campaign.

“I feel the tests with the Porsc⛄he Formula E car at Calafat were very positive,” he said.

“I am now looking forward to working with the team over the coming months, as we strive to get the very best out of the🌳 Porsche Formula E race car.”

Porsche FE team manager Amiel Linde🍷say, added: “We are satisfied with the Porsche Formula E tests at Calafat.

“We complet♊ed an extensive test programme and h𒈔ave laid the foundations for the coming months.”

Meanwhile, Hartley has in Toyota’s FIA World Endurance Championship line-up for the 2019/20 season, with the two-time F1 world champion’s future ﷽in WEC uncertain beyond the current campaign.
