After an electrifying Formula E season filled with record-breaking performances, the final race weekend has arrived. The action will unfold in London on July 20 and 21, with seven drivers still in contention for the championship. This climactic end to Season 10 promises several captivating storylines.
Leading the quest for multiple titles is James Barclay, the South African team principal of Jaguar TCS Racing. Since spearheading the team's entry into Formula E in 2016, the Johannesburg-born Barclay is now on the verge of steering Jaguar to its first Team’s and Driver’s Championship. A victory would make him the first South African team principal to win a Formula E World Championship.
Reflecting on the possibility of clinching both championships, Barclay expressed his excitement: "This is now one of Jaguar's most competitive World Championship campaigns ever, and that's fantastic. We have won many races and have lots of poles and fastest laps. But what we haven't done is won a championship yet. So our goal is to absolutely win the World Championship.” His pride is evident as Jaguar TCS Racing heads into the final race weekend leading both the Teams’ and Drivers’ standings, thanks to consistent performance and hard work.
Jaguar's success this season has been significantly bolstered by New Zealanders Nick Cassidy and Mitch Evans, giving them a 33-point lead over TAG Heuer Porsche in the Team’s Championship. However, Porsche, revitalized by Antonio Felix da Costa’s recent victories, poses a strong challenge. The Driver’s Championship remains tightly contested, with Cassidy's lead over Evans and Pascal Wehrlein narrowing to just 12 points after a tough weekend in Portland. As the final races approach, Cassidy remains optimistic and eager to compete in London, a favorite track where he achieved victory last year.
