Amlin, the global insurance and reinsurance company, who partnered the Team Aguri outfit last season will partner Andretti Autosport for the second season of the Formula E Championship.

The aim for Andretti Autosport this year is to finally win a race and the American team believe that Amlin can help contribute to the development of new technology, which is the ultimate goal for the 11 races in 10 locations for the global series in 2015 and 2016.

One of the main reasons why Team Owner Michael Andretti was so insistent that Amlin became part of the Andretti Autosport family is because Amlin promoted Amlin Aguri amazingly last season and the 52-year old wanted Andretti to do the same.

“Amlin did such a good job promoting their team in season one, we’re really looking forward to what this new partnership can bring in the coming years,” said Andretti

Amlin dominated the global social media for the racing series across season one, peaking at 51% of the global share of voice. With the unique and innovative FanBoost, the series has shown how much of a contribution new forms of fan engagement this can make.

CEO of Amlin, Charles Philipps, said “Amlin and Andretti were quick to spot the potential of Formula E. Both organisations are data driven and tech-focused, meaning there is much to look forward to over the coming seasons.”

Uniquely in the racing series, experts from Amlin’s insurance modelling and analytics team will be working with the race engineers to develop an in-depth understanding of what the car is capable of and how they can maximise its performance in a season where they have the opportunity to really develop the car’s technology.

Charles Philipps went on to explain “Amlin’s global strength in data analysis and our long-term view of business means fits well with this series and combined with Andretti’s excellent motorsport pedigree means we are looking forward to a fantastic few years.”

He believes the Amlin-sponsored team will again be the first choice for fans. “Fans have a lot to look forward to in this season; we can’t wait to get started and really see what the technology can deliver as we push the limits”.

The team also unveil a livery for next season which may be ready in time for the pre-season tests which take place on 10th and the 11th of August, with four further test days in the following two weeks.
