Wehrlein Wins 2026 Formula E Title in Crazy London Finale

Pascal Wehrlein secured his second Formula E world championship after a chaotic E-Prix London on Sunday. However, the victory was almost snatched away following a series of incidents that kept Porsche fans on the edge of their seats until the very last lap.

A Race Full of Contact

From the moment the lights went out, the race was intense. Mahindra's Nyck de Vries and Edoardo Mortara led the early laps, with Wehrlein closely protected by teammate Nico Muller. Behind them, a fierce battle raged as Mitch Evans continuously pressured Muller.

On lap five, Antonio Felix da Costa made a bold move, activating Attack Mode early to jump to third place. Wehrlein quickly copied the strategy, but their aggressive duel only benefited Taylor Barnard. Da Costa held his ground, leaving Wehrlein in fourth.

The biggest incident occurred three laps from the finish. Wehrlein attempted to pass Joel Eriksson, but the Swede spun, blocking both Wehrlein and Dennis. This moment nearly cost Wehrlein the title, as Evans, running fourth, still had an Attack Mode in hand.

However, Evans failed to capitalize. He had to settle for finishing behind Wehrlein, who ultimately clinched the title by five points in the final standings. For Jaguar, despite Barnard winning the race, they had to accept the bitter disappointment of losing the drivers' title, though they could still celebrate victory in the teams' championship.

With this result, Porsche further cemented its dominance in Formula E, while Jaguar had to settle for the constructors' crown. A season full of drama ended with a thrilling finish, reminding us why Formula E never fails to deliver surprises.
