Andretti Autosport has had a great start to the season, but they have slowly began to lose touch with the front runners.

Franck Montagny had a great start to the season in Beijing when he finished in second place. The French driver provided the entertainment in Beijing with a number of overtaking maneuvers throughout the eprix. Montagny’s teammate for Beijing Charles Pic also had a solid race by finishing in fourth place, which left Andretti Autosport leading the constructors championship.

The team struggled in Putrajaya, as Montagny and Matthew Brabham both finished outside the points. However, there poor performance was overshadowed by the announcement that Franck Montagny had taken Cocaine before the Putrajaya eprix.

Therefore, Andretti Autosport had to find a replacement driver in time for the Punta Del Este eprix. They managed to bring in another French driver in Jean Eric Vergne. This was a massive hit with fans and Jean Eric Vergne proved to be a great signing for the team as he rocketed to the top of the timesheets in qualifying.

Sadly for Vergne, his day could not end in victory as he retired on the last lap of the race with a mechanical fault.

Marco Andretti joined Jean Eric Vergne in Buenos Aires where the team seemed to struggled again for pace. Vergne was unable to get the car to the front grid and Marco was unable to get to grips with the car. Vergne could only finish in sixth place and Marco finished in 13th.

Despite this, Team Manager Rob Arnott has been satisfied with their season so far but admits that the team can still learn from the first four rounds of the championship.

“We are still on a steep learning curve at the moment. We need to work on our heat management for the rest of the season, but overall I am very satisfied.” said Rob Arnott.

The amazing thing with Andretti Autosport is that they have no confirmed drivers. Franck Montagny was their only signed driver for the season, but with his drug scandal he had to be dropped by Andretti had to drop him.

Jean Eric Vergne and Marco Andretti have other commitments in the world of the motorsport, so there is no guarantee that they will complete the final six rounds of the championship.

It will be interesting to see what drivers will be in the car for the remainder of the season, as Andretti Autosport will try and regain a few positions in the constructors championship.
