Team Aguri has announced that Salvador Duran will return to the team, replacing Nathanael Berthon in Formula E.
The Mexican driver raced in nine rounds of the inaugural Formula E season, scoring 13 points and registering a best finish of sixth in Moscow.
Berthon’s departure after just three rounds of the 2015/2016 campaign was confirmed by the Japanese outfit on Monday.
Duran was previously part of Trulli GP’s driver line-up, but the Italian team failed to participate in the season opener in Beijing and pulled out of the series a short while later.
"I am very excited to have re-signed for Team Aguri," Duran said. "This is a very ambitious team with some of the best engineering and technical knowledge in Formula E, and I look forward to being part of an already successful season.
"I’m particularly looking forward to my home race in Mexico in March. The atmosphere will be amazing and I can’t wait to put on a good show for all my compatriots."
Marc Faggionato, owner of Team Aguri, added: "Salvador is a perfect fit for the team and it’s great to have him joining us.
"His experience in the series is crucial, given the unique handling of these cars, and will play a major role in driving the team’s development forward for the remainder of the season and into next year."
