Just download the kit, design the race suit and upload it back onto the microsite. It is as easy and simple as one, two and three. The contest closes May 14th at 23:59 Indian Standard Time.

Nick will pick the winning design which will be unveiled across social media platforms on May 18th. He will wear the winning design at the Berlin ePrix. What’s more, the winning passioneer will be able to witness their design racing around Berlin’s iconic Templehof Airport during the June 10-11 double-header, and get a chance to meet Nick and hand the race suit over to him personally.

Mahindra Racing Formula E Team Principal Dilbagh Gill said, “We have a dedicated army of passioneers cheering us on around the world. They are driven by the same passion that drives our team to succeed in the cut-and-thrust of competition every race weekend. The #DrivenByDesign competitions are an initiative aimed at making our fans an even more integral part of the Mahindra Racing family.
