Jamaica’s motorsport sensation Fraser McConnell is set to return to Extreme E this weekend, as the championship heads into its historic Final Lap in Qiddiya City, Saudi Arabia. The ACCIONA | SAINZ XE Team has confirmed its driver line-up, with McConnell once again teaming up with Spanish motorsport legend Laia Sanz.

The duo proved a formidable partnership last season, delivering three podium finishes from four starts, including a commanding victory at the Desert X Prix in Saudi Arabia. Their consistency has established them as one of the championship’s most competitive pairings.

The ACCIONA SAINZ QEV squad, founded by two-time World Rally Champion and four-time Dakar Rally winner Carlos Sainz, has been a standout team since Extreme E’s inception, renowned for its speed and resilience across diverse terrains.

McConnell made history in 2021 as the first Jamaican to win a Rallycross Supercar race, and has since built an impressive résumé, including becoming a four-time Nitrocross Group E winner. He returns as one of Extreme E’s most successful drivers and will chase glory one last time in the electric off-road championship.

His teammate, Laia Sanz, is a 13-time Trial World Champion and Dakar Rally veteran who has been a fixture in Extreme E since its launch, bringing vast experience and consistency to the team’s campaign.

This weekend’s races mark the end of the Extreme E era, as the all-electric series transitions into the pioneering hydrogen-powered Extreme H World Cup the following weekend — a bold next step in sustainable motorsport.
