Maserati MSG Racing

Maserati MSG Racing was a Monegasque racing team that competed in the FIA Formula E World Championship. The team previously competed under the Venturi Racing name from 20142022. The team was renamed to Citroën Racing Formula E Team from the 2025–26 season.

After eight seasons on the Formula E grid, the new owners of Venturi Racing led by Chairman Scott Swid renamed the team Monaco Sports Group for the 2022-2023 season. The team announced a title and powertrain partnership with Maserati in April 2022, after the luxury automotive manufacturer announced it would join Formula E for Season 9 in January 2022.

The team used powertrains designed and developed by Maserati and DS Automobiles parent company, Stellantis, as part of a regulation change for the 2023 season, allowing automotive brands from the same ownership group to share a powertrain.

The team was controlled and operated by MSG Racing from its headquarters in Monaco. The 2022–23 season marked the return of the Maserati brand to single-seater competition for the first time 65 years, after last competing in Formula One in 1957.

On 3 November 2022, the team confirmed that Edoardo Mortara would remain with the organisation for a sixth successive season and would be joined by Formula E’s youngest race winner, Maximilian Günther for the 2022–23 Formula E World Championship. Former professional racing driver and ex-DS Techeetah Sporting Director, James Rossiter, joined as Team Principal.

After unveiling its Gen3 car, the Maserati Tipo Folgore – named after the Maserati Tipo 26 and the marque’s electric automotive range, Folgore – in Modena, Italy, the team enjoyed a successful pre-season test at the Circuit Ricardo Tormo with Günther setting the fastest time.

The team scored its first points of the season in Race Two of the 2023 Diriyah ePrix and returned to the top 10 in Hyderabad but failed to score points in Cape Town and São Paulo after running in podium contention.

At the 2023 Berlin ePrix, Günther finished in third place to score the Maserati brand’s first podium in World Championship single-seater motorsport since Juan Manuel Fangio's second place at the 1957 Italian Grand Prix. A breakthrough weekend in Berlin commenced a strong second half to the team’s season, with Günther scoring double pole positions and podiums, and a race victory in Jakarta – Maserati’s first win since the 1957 German Grand Prix. He later returned to the podium in Rome.
