The 2024-25 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship began with a bang in Sao Paulo with Mitch Evans taking an extraordinary last to first win in his new Jaguar Gen3Evo machine.
That was only part of a dramatic landscape to a race that also included two red flags, the last of which was for Pascal Wehrlein’s inverted Porsche. The reigning champion emerged unscathed from the wreck after tangling with fellow assumed title rival Nick Cassidy’s already damaged Jaguar.
Other stellar performances analysed include Taylor Barnard’s remarkable third place and Oliver Rowland’s strong weekend which was devalued and unrewarded due to team errors and poor reliability.
We hear from Rowland and Barnard, as well as Jaguar TCS Racing boss James Barclay who describes some of the trickier moments from another complex and scintillating race.
Host Andrew van de Burgt and reporter Sam Smith dive in to the fall-out from a spectacular opener that saw the true return of potent attack mode and an upswing in lap time largely thanks to All-Wheel-Drive and a new tyre compound.
