    Sanya E-Prix: Dennis victorious as title chasers hit trouble

    The hot, humid and heady atmosphere of Sanya, on the Chinese island of Hainan was mirrored by some lairy action on the track as Jake Dennis claimed his second win of the season for Andretti. While Dennis celebrated, the title chasing quartet of Mitch Evans, Oliver Rowland, Pascal Wehrlein and Edoardo Mortara came away with not a point between them as shunts and bizarre fire extinguisher activations accounted for the top four in the points table. Pepe Marti took an FE career best second place but his CUPRA Kiro teammate blotted his copybook again when he smashed in to the back of Evans’ Jaguar just before a bizarre red flag incident that those two combatants were also involved in. As well as the red flag query, some of the penalties that were dished out are also unpacked, as is the new 2026-27 calendar that will include new tracks at Zandvoort, Brands Hatch and COTA.

    Formula E mid-season review: Who have been the winners and losers so far?

    Ten races down and seven to go. The 2025-26 ABB FIA Formula E world championship  has so far seen eight different winners from 10 races.  Sam Smith and Matt Beer unpack a ferociously competitive campaign so far as the final season of the rules set proves to be the notoriously competitive series’ closest yet. Mitch Evans leads title race by 19 points from Oliver Rowland but Edo Mortara and Pascal Wehrlein are in strong contention too as one each from the final season of Gen3’s quickest manufacturer cars – Jaguar, Nissan, Mahindra and Porsche. A winners and losers themed structure to the podcast attempts to unravel the action which has seen thrill and spills aplenty in the first half of the season. The seemingly never ending soap opera of Dan Ticktum’s career is revisited, along with how rookie talents Pepe Marti and Felipe Drugovich’s efforts so far. Some driver and teams attain both winners and losers this season as Formula E’s typically fraught multi-textured races have delivered on their regular promises of making heroes become zeros and vice versa sometimes even over the course of a single weekend.

    Monaco E-Prix: Jaguar take advantage after Porsche self-sabotage (ad free)

    An eventful, controversial and penalty laden Monaco double-header played out as the 2026 ABB FIA Formula E world championship reached the halfway mark. Jaguar opened up a buffer over a fractious and self-sabotaging Porsche in the championship standings, although neither took a win as both Mahindra and Nissan claimed two clinical wins via Nyck de Vries and Oliver Rowland. The undoubted king of the qualifying lap though was Dan Ticktum who took a brace of thrilling pole positions for CUPRA Kiro. But a combination of poor strategy execution, a contentious shunt with Antonio Felix da Costa and overheating tyres scuppered any chance adding to his six ‘pole points.’ Sam Smith and Matt Beer take you through a maze of cut and thrust racing as the world’s only all-electric world championship proved once again that overtaking, at pretty much anywhere on the legendary streets of the Principality, is not only possible but now expected.

    Berlin E-Prix: Veteran's first win, 'wet race in the dry' and Formula E silly season latest

    Two very different Berlin E-Prixs are mulled over by Sam Smith and Val Khorounzhiy as the 2026 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship approached the halfway point at the unique Tempelhof circuit. Nico Mueller finally broke through in to the winner’s circle after 68 attempts, while Mitch Evans re-affirmed his title threat with a second win of the season for Jaguar, via an audacious tyre and early energy save strategy. But Pascal Wehrlein’s pole and third place in the second of the double-headers ensured that Porsche were the big winners and continue to hold the lead in all three of the title chases. A bumper segment of The Stat Pack powered by Infosys sees a deep dive in to how Mitch Evans maximised his and Jaguar’s strategy and also the key traits of Mueller’s victory. Also picked over are some classic Formula E staples such as Dan Ticktum’s latest rants, Oliver Rowland’s ascent up the order to grab two podiums and the increasing poor form of DS Penske who continue their uncharacteristic points slump.

    Why Formula E's Gen4 car will be special (with James Rossiter)

    A special deep dive podcast in to the recently unleashed Gen4 Formula E car is explored by lead Formula E writer Sam Smith as he is joined by official development driver James Rossiter. The pair discuss the insane acceleration of the new car and how its efficiency and emphasis on performance is set to re-define perceptions on electric racing cars as Formula E gets set for its fourth era later this year. A discussion between The Race and Rossiter also unfolds on the growing comparisons between the world’s only all-electric world championship and the much more electric new F1 rules. Additionally, Rossiter explains how the active differential on the car, its permanent four wheel drive and two-tiered aerodynamic set-up will be tackled by the teams and drivers in private testing and then in the run up to the season starting and a new way of racing is expected to flourish.

    Jarama served up the drama - but did it also hint at a new Formula E blueprint?

Has Formula E stumbled upon a new model for its race events? That's one of the key topics discussed in the latest episode of The Race Formula E Podcast. All of the race's big talking points are also discussed, including the team orders row that overshadowed Jaguar's 1-2, and the late drama that saw championship leader Pascal Wehrlein mug Dan Ticktum for third at the last corner.

    Jeddah E-Prix: How Porsche and Jaguar shared the spoils

    The first double header of the season at the Jeddah Corniche circuit is unpacked by host Andrew van de Burgt and Formula E paddock dweller Sam Smith. The return of Pit Boost but with a twist of just one attack mode was unveiled in Saudi Arabia, but did it make for a more engaging race narrative? Pascal Wehrlein and Antonio Felix da Costa shared the spoils for Porsche and Jaguar respectively, while Edoardo Mortara starred again for Mahindra with a brace of pole positions. A forensic look through some key data points is also looked in to via the Stat Pack powered by Infosys, as da Costa and Wehrlein’s win is explored, along with the reemergence of Sebastien Buemi as a force. The consistent cabaret of CUPRA Kiro’s Dan Ticktum and teammate Pepe Marti is looked in to as they came to blows in a fight for fifth position in the second event of the weekend. All this and the latest news and views from the paddock is tucked in to as Formula E completes its first quarter of the season and now looks ahead to a mini European leg in the spring.

    Miami E-Prix: Evans dominates as Jaguar roar into life

    Unseasonably cool and damp conditions in Miami tore the formbook apart at the first ever Hard Rock Stadium race. While many teams got the last minute set-ups wrong, including the crucial tyre-pressure optimisation, Jaguar roared back to the top step of the podium with a conclusive victory for Mitch Evans. After scoring zero points in the first two races of the season the ‘Big Cat’ roared back and had it not been for getting wiped-out by an over eager Felipe Drugovich it may well have been a 1-2. Host Andrew van de Burgt and reporter Sam Smith dissect a fascinating race, highlighting how several fancied runners, including total protagonists Oliver Rowland and Nick Cassidy got it so wrong. The inevitable ranty end to Dan Ticktum’s race is also picked over, as is the Miami event and how Formula E can grow it, and where another U.S race may fit in to its calendar next year. Plus, Andrew and Sam discuss the race's key stats in the Stat Pack from Infosys.
