Miami E-Prix
Miami’s street circuit delivered drama and history at the latest round of the Formula E World Championship, as Mitch Evans powered from ninth on the grid to a breath-taking victory for Jaguar TCS Racing. In damp and tricky conditions at the new Miami International Autodrome, Evans not only took the chequered flag first from a competitive field, but also set a new all-time wins record in Formula E with 15 career victories — all in Jaguar colours.
The New Zealander surged through the field in a race defined by strategy, energy management and late-race intensity, ultimately claiming a win that not only thrilled the Florida crowd but also set a new benchmark in the all-electric championship. In doing so, Evans became Jaguar’s most successful Formula E driver to date, underlining his status as one of the series’ most decisive racers.
Starting further back than ideal, Evans kept himself firmly in contention during the opening exchanges, conserving energy while others battled ahead. As the race unfolded, he began to pick off rivals with clinical precision. Perfectly timed Attack Mode deployments and calm execution under pressure allowed him to move into podium contention before making the decisive pass for the lead in the closing stages.
Behind the wheel of the Jaguar I-TYPE, Evans demonstrated the blend of patience and aggression that has come to define his Formula E career. The victory was not simply about outright pace; it was built on racecraft, tactical clarity and faultless teamwork from the Jaguar garage.
The result strengthens Jaguar TCS Racing’s championship campaign and reinforces the team’s reputation as one of the most consistent front-runners of the Gen3 era. It also marked a milestone moment for Evans personally, adding another headline achievement to a career already rich in street-circuit success.
Speaking after the race, Evans described the win as one of the most satisfying of his Formula E career, praising the team’s execution and the performance of the car in demanding Miami conditions.
Miami may have provided the backdrop, but the statement was global: Jaguar TCS Racing remains firmly in the fight, and Mitch Evans has just raised the bar once again.
“It’s such an incredible feeling taking this record-breaking win here in Miami,” Evans said after the race. “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.”
The result marks a significant turnaround for Evans and Jaguar after a lean start to the season, and it injects new momentum into their title bid. With the championship heading next to Jeddah, the team will be looking to harness this performance and build consistency. For fans of the British outfit, Saturday’s win was not just another podium — it was a statement that Jaguar remains a force in the all-electric era of motorsport.
For Jaguar fans, it was a reminder of the brand’s enduring strength in international motorsport. From its endurance racing heritage to its modern electric ambitions, the leaping cat continues to compete — and win — at the highest level.
