Amlin Andretti had a dreadful time at Donington Park over the past two days, as they only completed one full lap throughout the first two days of pre-season testing.

The American team have been battling countless software issues as they try and get all the tools of their new powertrain talking to each other.

Each team had 15 days of post-season running to understand and gather information about their new powertrain going into the official tests at Donnington, but the Amlin Andretti team were battling these software gremlins throughout those 15 days.

Roger Griffiths, Amlin Andretti’s director of motorsport development told Formula E Zone that they are working flat out to find a solution.

“We have been looking at some software issues, and it becomes one of the challenges when you have many new parts to work with, you find yourself trying to make improvements to the car, but for us when we introduce an improvement we introduce a bug.”

“The main issue is that some of these bugs are buried deep within the system, and fixing them is very tricky. However, we think we have made some progress on the dyno and we hope we have a solution to the problem.”

“We are not in any rush to get the car out yet, as we have plenty of time to do so, but our main focus is now finding these bugs and fix them before we send the car out onto the track,” said Roger Griffiths.

The team now only have five days until the car is due to be back onto the circuit at Donington Park for the third test and the cars will be being shipped to Beijing at the end of August.

If the team can’t improve their performance by the end of the month, they will carry their issues over to Beijing in October.
