JAGUAR TCS RACING’S Mitch Evans claimed his first win of the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship at the Miami E-Prix, charging from ninth on the grid on a damp circuit to seal a memorable victory.
The result marked the New Zealander’s 15th career Formula E win, all with Jaguar, making him the most successful driver in the championship’s 11-year history. The #9 Jaguar TCS Racing driver also recorded the fastest lap at the Miami International Autodrome.
At one stage, Jaguar looked set for a double-podium finish, with Antonio Felix da Costa running strongly near the front for much of the race. However, while in third place, he was hit by Andretti’s Felipe Drugovich. The resulting damage forced him down the order, and he eventually finished eighth.
Up front, Evans activated his second Attack Mode and managed to keep ahead of Muller’s Porsche all the way to the chequered flag, setting the race’s fastest lap en route to his first victory of the season.
Jaguar TCS Racing team principal Ian James said, “I am absolutely thrilled for everyone in the Jaguar TCS Racing team following a superb victory in Miami. In damp and tricky conditions Mitch drove peerlessly to take the win, and claiming the record for the highest number of victories in Formula E history, all with Jaguar, is testament to his skill behind the wheel.”
Evans shared, “It’s such an incredible feeling taking this record-breaking win here in Miami. To have taken the most number of wins in Formula E is a special feeling and to come from behind to take the win makes it even sweeter. In the conditions the race definitely came to us and I was able to keep the pace throughout. I hope today’s win kickstarts our season and the aim is to take this good form into the Jeddah double-header.”
