Dennis has compiled an impressive record during his tenure with Andretti, achieving:
- Seven race victories

His performance this season remains formidable, having already secured one win and currently holding eighth position in the Drivers' Standings with 39 points as he prepares for the upcoming Madrid E-Prix on March 21.
Mutual Trust and Shared Success
In an exclusive statement to FormulaE.com, Dennis expressed his enthusiasm about continuing the partnership that has defined his Formula E career. "I'm absolutely thrilled to be signing a multi-year deal with Andretti Global," he stated. "For me, it made perfect sense to continue our partnership and my career with the team, which I've been with since the start of my Formula E career. The belief the team has shown in me over the years has been incredible, and that trust means a huge amount."
The driver emphasized the strong foundation they've built together, adding: "We've built something really strong together, and I'm proud to continue that journey with a group of people I know so well and genuinely enjoy working with. There have been so many great memories together, and I'm confident we can continue our success into the future."
Andretti Leadership Celebrates Long-Term Commitment
Andretti Team Principal Roger Griffiths shared his reaction to the contract extension, telling FormulaE.com: "I am beyond pleased to be able to make this announcement. At the time when the team, along with BMW, initially partnered with Jake, we never could have imagined how the relationship would develop. Jake has been an integral part of Andretti Formula E's transformation into one of the series' leading teams today."
Griffiths highlighted the mutual commitment that has driven their success, explaining: "His commitment to us, his belief in the team and ours in him, is one of the key reasons for all the success we have been fortunate enough to experience together. We look forward to closing out the current season as strongly as we started it before transitioning to Season 13 together."
This contract extension represents a significant vote of confidence in Dennis's abilities and underscores Andretti's commitment to maintaining their competitive edge as Formula E prepares to enter its next generation of racing technology. The partnership between driver and team has proven remarkably successful, and both parties appear poised to build upon their achievements in the seasons ahead.
