Pascal Wehrlein etched his name into the history books as a two-time Formula E world champion after navigating a chaotic London E-Prix weekend. The Porsche driver won the opening race but failed to score a point in the second—yet it was enough to hold off Jake Dennis and Mitch Evans, who ended the campaign second and third in the standings.
The 2026 season delivered a dramatic finale. Pascal Wehrlein arrived in London with a slim title chance, then dominated Race 1 to secure a vital victory. But in Race 2, everything unravelled—he was involved in an incident and finished outside the points. However, his closest rivals also failed to capitalise, leaving the German's title hopes intact.
Meanwhile, Jake Dennis of Andretti and Mitch Evans of Jaguar had to settle for being the bridesmaids all season. Dennis showcased remarkable consistency, while Evans delivered several stunning performances, but both lost crucial points at critical moments. This tight battle kept the championship alive until the final lap.
In the teams' championship, Jaguar secured the title after a fierce duel with Porsche in the closing stages. Although Porsche had already clinched the manufacturers' title in Tokyo three weeks ago, Jaguar proved stronger in the season finale. Consistent performances from both drivers, including Antonio Felix da Costa who finished sixth, were key to the British squad's success.
Formula E now enters a new era. After this thrilling season, all teams will prepare for the first pre-season test with the Gen4 car, scheduled for Madrid in November. This will be a crucial moment for every team to adapt to the new technology before the 2027 season begins.
With the 2026 season concluded, fans can breathe a sigh of relief after witnessing one of the most competitive campaigns in Formula E history. Four different drivers won races in the second half of the season, and the title was only decided in the final race. Next season promises to be even tighter with new technical regulations on the horizon.
