Crawford joins Season 9 World Champion Jake Dennis and Formula E veteran Nico Mueller to complete Andretti Formula E’s Season 11 lineup.
Crawford returns to the team after an impressive Formula E debut at the 2024 Berlin E-Prix Rookie Test where he demonstrated a strong understanding of the Andretti Porsche 99X Electric finishing the day second overall in classification.
The American has quickly climbed the motorsport ranks, from winning multiple karting championships to competing in Formula 2 with DAMS Lucas Oil and becoming part of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One team's Young Driver Development program earlier this year.

“I’m very excited to be the official Reserve and Development Driver for the Andretti Formula E team in Season 11," says the 19-year-old. "Growing up in America, Andretti is such a household name in motorsports so it's a privilege to have the opportunity to be part of the team.
"I’m keen to learn as much about the car as possible from both Jake and Nico, and to play a role on the development side through simulator work. I’m looking forward to getting started and to hopefully have the chance to get more experience in the car.”
Building on his experience, Crawford will play an integral role in the team’s GEN3 Evo development through simulator development and setup testing at Andretti Formula E’s Banbury headquarters. Crawford will attend select race events with the Andretti Formula E team throughout Season 11.
“We are very pleased to announce that Jak is taking a more permanent role with the Andretti Formula E team as our Reserve and Development Driver," adds Team Principal Roger Griffiths. "His debut with us at the Berlin Rookie Test was very impressive and he immediately showed strong pace.
"When the opportunity of a Reserve and Development Driver arose, Jak was immediately of interest. He has demonstrated a mature approach through his second season in Formula 2, and since his appearance with us, has already achieved a win and three additional podiums. We look forward to his contributions in helping improve the team’s performance though his active role driving the simulator.”
