Jaguar driver Mitch Evans battles for championship lead in Monaco

The FIA Formula E World Championship heads to Monaco this weekend for one of the biggest events of the season — and Jaguar arrives right in the thick of the title fight. After a superb recent run that has seen Jaguar TCS Racing win four of the last six races, Mitch Evans sits second in the Drivers’ Championship, just three points from the lead as the season reaches a crucial stage.

Monaco has become a particularly strong venue for Jaguar. Evans has scored four consecutive podiums on the streets of Monte Carlo, including victory last season as part of Jaguar’s historic Monaco 1-2 finish — one of the defining moments in the team’s Formula E story so far.

Speaking ahead of the weekend, Evans said:

I always look forward to racing in Monaco and off the back of our recent strong form and my win in Berlin, it is great to come into this weekend with some positive momentum. It is effectively my home race and, having won in Monaco previously and been on the podium on multiple occasions, I can’t wait to race around such an iconic track once again.

The New Zealander arrives in Monaco fresh from his latest Berlin victory, which extended his Formula E record to sixteen career wins. Jaguar TCS Racing also heads into the double-header sitting second in both the Teams’ and Manufacturers’ standings, underlining the consistency and pace now being shown by the Jaguar I-TYPE 7 package.

For Jaguar enthusiasts, Formula E continues to represent far more than simply a race programme. The championship remains Jaguar’s global showcase for EV technology, performance engineering and modern motorsport identity, with Monaco providing the perfect backdrop. On one of the world’s most famous street circuits, the combination of cutting-edge electric performance and Jaguar racing heritage feels especially fitting.

With the championship battle tightening, Monaco could prove one of the pivotal weekends of the season — and Jaguar fans have every reason to believe the Big Cat can leave the Principality still firmly in the hunt for world championship glory.

UK viewers can follow Jaguar’s Monaco Formula E challenge live this weekend on ITV and ITVX. Race coverage from Monaco will be shown free-to-air on ITVX, with highlights and delayed coverage also airing on ITV4. Qualifying and additional sessions are available via TNT Sports and Discovery+. 

The Monaco E-Prix races begin at 2:05 pm UK time on both Saturday and Sunday, with qualifying starting at 9:40 am BST each morning.

Agreed values

We have a number of highly-qualified experts who can inspect your vehicle prior to purchase and provide you with a full written report. In addition to their complete understanding of the mechanical and aesthetic aspects of vehicle inspection, they have extensive experience with the Jaguar marque which perfectly equips them to identify the unique requirements of specific models and years, something that is particularly important for older cars.

The cost of an inspection begins at £100, with the final figure determined by the time needed and the distance the inspector is required to travel. We can guarantee that your inspection will be cheaper than an equivalent AA or RAC inspection.

This small upfront outlay could save you thousands in the long term.

To arrange an inspection simply call JEC Head Office on 0117 969 8186 and they will provide you with details of your nearest inspector.

Also from our club HQ in Bristol we can give you an official valuation for insurance purposes. Our valuations are accepted by all leading insurance brokers and Companies.

Simply call 0117 969 8186 for details

GETTING STARTED

Jaguar Enthusiasts’ Club Insurance is designed specifically for members of the JEC. That’s why it covers JEC TrackSport events and offers cover for JEC Young Enthusiasts. Furthermore, the scheme recognises that members may have a combination of newer and more historic Jaguars and so the scheme caters for all, other individually or part of a multi-vehicle offering.

Club insurance doesn’t operate the way standard insurance does. While it does still take a vehicle’s mechanical characteristics into account, it also places a lot of emphasis on how the vehicle is used, cared for and maintained.

Club insurance also offers a host of benefits and products that you simply cannot get outside of membership of the JEC, such as member to member cover for example. This enables you to drive your friends Jaguars at regional meets, events and on tours with fully comprehensive cover and without the need to complete more paperwork or ring up and incur costs for adding named drivers.

This way, you’ll be comfortable knowing that you have a policy that fits your vehicle and your usage needs perfectly.
