He is also now a co-owner of a GP3 team and was also development driver, advisor and publicity agent for the new Formula E series- for electric racing cars - before unsurprisingly, stepping up to a race seat at the start of the series in 2014. He remains there for the 2024/2025 season and won the title in 2016/2017.
