Unpacking the wild chaos of the 2025/26 Formula E season so far
What an absolute whirlwind the 2025/26 Formula E season has been. We are wading waist-deep into a championship where strategy, weather, and sheer bravery are rewriting the form book every single weekend. Let me tell you, the racing has been nothing short of insane, featuring everything from stunning manufacturer breakthroughs to heart-stopping shunts that leave you holding your breath.
Take the opener in São Paulo, where Andretti's Jake Dennis converted pole into victory during a frantic 30-lap tear. It was far from straightforward, featuring a massive shunt for rookie Pepe Marti over Jaguar's Antonio Felix da Costa that triggered a late Red Flag. Dennis held off reigning champion Oliver Rowland and Nick Cassidy to take the spoils. Citroën made history in Mexico City with their maiden Formula E win thanks to a masterclass by Cassidy, while Mitch Evans clawed through the rain in Miami to secure a commanding 3.1-second victory and a record 15th career win.
Then came Jeddah, where Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein celebrated his 100th E-Prix with a perfectly timed victory, pulling an eight-second gap after a brilliant PIT BOOST and late ATTACK MODE strategy. Da Costa bounced back in Round 5 to claim his first win for Jaguar TCS Racing, before making it two for the season with a masterclass around the Circuito del Jarama in Madrid under intense pressure from Evans, Dan Ticktum, Wehrlein, and Edoardo Mortara. Wehrlein currently leads the Drivers' Championship on 83 points, sitting 11 points clear of Mortara, while Porsche holds a razor-thin four-point lead over Jaguar in the Teams' Championship.
Berlin gave us pure magic as Nico Müller delivered a strategic masterclass from 6th on the grid to secure a home victory for Porsche, running a gorgeous "Pink Pig" livery celebrating the 75th anniversary of Porsche Motorsport. Evans bounced right back in the second Berlin round at Tempelhof, surging from 17th to take his record-breaking 16th series win. Monaco brought more brilliance as Nyck de Vries kept his cool for Mahindra Racing to claim his fifth career victory and a maiden win for the team in the GEN3 era, while Oliver Rowland answered back in Round 10 with a vintage drive for Nissan down at the Nouvelle Chicane.
