Title decider in London for end of GEN3 era across Rounds 16 and 17

Here it is, the final weekend of Formula E’s GEN3 era, and the stakes could not possibly be higher. After 63 races, 19 locations, 15 different race winners, and 24 podium finishers across four incredible seasons, everything comes down to the London Excel circuit for Rounds 16 and 17.

Following a complete flip of the drivers' standings in Tokyo, Andretti's Jake Dennis holds the championship lead on 146 points after securing two consecutive podiums and a Julius Baer Pole Position. He sits just two points ahead of Jaguar TCS Racing's Mitch Evans on 144, while Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein lurks in third on 141 points after failing to score in the second Japanese race. They are not alone in the fight, as reigning World Champion Oliver Rowland of Nissan, along with Mahindra Racing's Edoardo Mortara, Nick Cassidy, and Nico Müller, all remain mathematically in the hunt for the crown.

In the teams' battle, Jaguar TCS Racing leads the standings with 257 points, chased hard by Porsche on 243, who already locked up the Manufacturers' World Championship crown in Tokyo. This grand finale takes place on the iconic half indoor-outdoor London Excel track, featuring a smooth, high-grip indoor start before sending the field out onto the abrasive asphalt surrounding the exhibition centre. It is a fittingly unique venue to close this chapter, especially as the championship prepares to switch to Brands Hatch in 2027 and welcome the upcoming GEN4 machinery.

This weekend also brings a heartfelt farewell to a true pillar of the series. Lola Yamaha ABT's Lucas di Grassi is hanging up his helmet, marking the end of an illustrious career for the Season 3 World Champion who was the very first driver to commit to the championship. The Brazilian leaves with 14 wins, 42 podiums, and 163 E-Prix starts, capped by his emotional masterstroke in Shanghai earlier this year when a dry-setup gamble in the wet rocketed him from the back of the grid to a historic victory.

Reflecting on his departure, di Grassi shared: “After a lifetime dedicated to racing, 2026 will mark my final season as a professional racing driver and the beginning of a new chapter. I gave everything I had to this sport, and in return, it gave me a life beyond anything I could have dreamed of.”
