NEOM McLaren has announced that its new reserve driver Alex Dunne will be tasked with the team’s Formula E rookie duty at next week’s Jeddah E-Prix weekend.

The Irishman, who took two podiums in his debut Formula 3 season last year, will partake in the FP0 session set for Thursday Feburary 13th, one day before the first race of the double-header weekend.

The 2022 British F4 Champion and 2023 GB3 runner-up was recently confirmed as the team’s reservist, taking the place of Taylor Barnard, who is now occupying a race seat alongside Sam Bird.

In a statement released by McLaren, Dunne said: “I’m looking forward to getting my first chance to drive the GEN3 Evo for the NEOM McLaren Formula E Team next week in Jeddah.

“As our Reserve and Development Driver, Alex has already been playing a key role within the team and has been supporting us through his work in the simulator.    

“Throughout his junior career, Alex has shown great promise, and I know he’ll make the most of this opportunity.”
