In an exclusive interview with Autosport in April, Lotterer explained that he had enjoyed his time in Formula E and hoped to continue, but felt he was in "good hands" with Porsche and would be happy with any decision that the German manufacturer would make.
Since then, Lotterer has been confirmed as part of the factory 963 LMDh driver roster with Porsche Penske Motorsport, and Porsche motorsport boss Thomas Laudenbach stated that the veteran German would not be continuing with a race role in Formula E with the team.
