Pretoria, South Africa, 17 July 2024 – The 2024 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship will draw to a close this weekend, as Jaguar TCS Racing returns to its home race in London for what will be a thrilling end to an action-packed season.

The British team, currently with 322 points, is aiming to convert its 33-point lead into victory and become the Teams’ World Champion, after finishing as runner-up last year.

To date, this has been Jaguar TCS Racing’s most successful season since entering the all-electric World Championship in 2016 having already exceeded its previous record points and podiums totals. The 322 points scored going into London is also more than any team has previously achieved in a full season.

Drivers Nick Cassidy and Mitch Evans currently hold first and second respectively in the Driver’s World Championship with just 12 points separating them.  The 2023 London E-Prix saw Mitch Evans take Pole position and the win in Round 15 with Nick Cassidy doing the same in Round 16 (whilst driving for Jaguar’s customer team, Envision Racing), so the team expects the Jaguar I-TYPE 6 to be competitive again.

James Barclay, Jaguar TCS Racing Team Principal: “I am extremely proud that we go into the final race weekend of the 2024 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship with Jaguar TCS Racing leading both the Teams’ and Drivers’ World Championship standings. We’ve been consistently quick this season and the whole team has worked incredibly hard to get us to this point.

“For the last four seasons we have gone into the final weekend in a position to fight for the Drivers’ or Teams’ Championships, and we are excited to be fighting for both titles again. Our 2024 campaign has seen us achieve our biggest points haul to date and alongside our customer team, Envision Racing, we’ve achieved 16 podiums so far matching last season’s total. This shows how competitive the Jaguar I-TYPE 6 is, and how dedicated both teams have been to maximise its potential. With just two rounds to go in London, we are very much looking forward to racing on home soil and will give it everything we have.”

Mitch Evans, Jaguar TCS Racing driver, #9: “London is always a great track and I’m excited to return. Leaving Portland in second puts me in a great position for London, just 12 points from the top spot, so it’s given me a boost of confidence for sure. I’m determined to maintain a strong position for the team too and that we finish the weekend taking the Teams’ World Championship title. It’s going to be a hard, but we’ll be giving it everything we’ve got.”

Nick Cassidy, Jaguar TCS Racing driver, #37: “I’m looking forward to returning to London – it’s one of my favourites of the season, especially after winning there last year. Portland was tough for me but I’m feeling positive having maintained my lead in the Drivers’ World Championship. Bring it on!” Lights go green at the 2024 Hankook London E-Prix at 18:00 on 20 and 21 July.Jaguar TCS Racing heads to the ExCeL in London for the season finale of the 2024 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship this weekend
