The 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship has reached its 11-round mark with the kind of volatility that defines the series at its best: eight different winners, repeated strategic swings and races repeatedly shaped by ATTACK MODE, PIT BOOST, Safety Cars, Red Flags and post-race penalties.
Jake Dennis opened the season in São Paulo by converting pole into victory, but only after a hectic race that included a late Red Flag following Pepe Marti’s spectacular accident with Antonio Felix da Costa. Dennis held off Oliver Rowland and Nick Cassidy in the one-lap sprint to the flag.

Cassidy then gave Citroën a landmark first Formula E win in Mexico City, recovering strongly as Sebastien Buemi’s pole advantage disappeared after a Turn 1 error. Cassidy’s timing of ATTACK MODE proved decisive, with Edoardo Mortara and Rowland finishing close behind in a tightly packed top five.
Rain complicated Miami, where Mitch Evans surged from the lower end of the top 10 and passed Nico Müller with a precise switchback on Lap 27. Jeddah then underlined the growing importance of race execution: Pascal Wehrlein won Round 4 in his 100th E-Prix after perfectly sequencing PIT BOOST and ATTACK MODE, before Da Costa struck for Jaguar in Round 5 by committing early to his ATTACK MODE activations.
Da Costa doubled up in Madrid, becoming the first driver of the season to win more than once. His victory came under heavy late pressure from Evans, Dan Ticktum, Wehrlein and Mortara, while Wehrlein left Spain leading the Drivers’ Championship on 83 points, 11 clear of Mortara.

Berlin produced two contrasting statements. Müller claimed his maiden Formula E win in Porsche’s home race, helped by energy management and a special ‘Pink Pig’ livery, before Evans won from 17th in Round 8 to become the most successful race winner in series history with 16 victories.
Monaco split its honours between Nyck de Vries and Rowland. De Vries delivered Mahindra’s first GEN3-era victory after an early PIT BOOST and controlled ATTACK MODE phase, while Rowland won the second Monaco race from eighth after taking the lead at the Nouvelle Chicane on Lap 23.

Sanya brought Andretti’s strongest day yet. Dennis led Felipe Drugovich on track for an apparent 1-2, but Drugovich’s five-second penalty for avoidable contact with Wehrlein promoted Marti to second and de Vries to third.
With Shanghai next, the championship has momentum and uncertainty in equal measure. For more on what comes after Sanya, read our Formula E Shanghai E-Prix preview as the 2025/26 campaign moves into its next decisive phase.
