Maximillian Günther is still unsure of his Formula E future despite recording his and Dragon’s best result of the season.

When asked if he would be back in the car for the next round in Monaco, Günther replied that he was in the dark as to what Dragon’s driver decision for the rest of the season would be.

“I don’t know at the moment. I just tried to do the best possible job this weekend.”

“We had a good weekend. At the moment I don’t know what’s going on, what will be going on in the future. I will probably figure out in the next few days. So yeah; no information yet.”

When Formula E Zone suggested that his strong result and impressive performance in Paris had improved his chances of keeping his seat at Dragon, Günther grinned but did not give anything away.

“Well, I mean that’s speculation…” responded the 21-year-old. “Let’s see what happens.”

Günther was forced to miss three races this season in Mexico, Hong Kong and Sanya to vacate his seat for ex-Sauber Formula One driver Felipe Nasr, before returning to the seat when the Brazillian’s IMSA commitments precluded him from competing in Rome and Paris.

The German was delighted with his fifth-place finish, it also means he has climbed to 17th in the driver’s championship with 10 points.

It also lifts Dragon off the bottom of the team’s championship, six points ahead of Nio, after a difficult start to the season.

“Finally P5 is a very good result for me, for us as a team I think us scoring ten points, I think it’s very, very good!” Explained an elated Günther.

“It was very challenging, for sure. All possible conditions from dry, (to) damp, (to) fully wet! Chaotic things going on, so it was important to stay calm; finally we did, and we scored the points.”

The Formula 2 race winner has adapted quickly to the unique demands of Formula E, and explained how exciting and enjoyable he was finding his time at the wheel of the Generation 2 car.

“For sure it’s the most different car that I ever drove in my career so far, but I enjoy it a lot because it’s always on the edge! As a driver you always need to use your talent, always adapt, it’s never the same. It’s very often unpredictable.”

“And then if you have changing conditions like today it’s even more unpredictable! So I have to say I really enjoy it, because as a driver you really need to anticipate a lot.”

Paris was the first Formula E race to take place in full wet conditions, with a hailstorm hitting the track. Günther was able to stay out of trouble, and explained that he relished the challenge of driving in the rain.

“It was difficult in some parts of the race, for sure.” He admitted.

“Basically at one point you couldn’t even go flat out anymore on the straights, that’s when we had the interruption of the full course yellow. But it was drivable; it was very difficult, on the edge very often, but I enjoyed it a lot.”
