Christine Giampaoli Zonca will return to the Extreme E paddock at this weekend’s Copper X Prix in Chile, serving as the series’ official reserve driver alongside British Rallycross champion Patrick O’Donnovan.
Hedda Hosaas will replace Emma Gilmour in McLaren’s Extreme E lineup for the season-ending Copper X Prix in Chile next week, driving alongside Tanner Foust for the team while Gilmour continues to recover from injuries she sustained at the second Island X Prix in Sardinia back in September.
