Pole position and heartbreak at home Hyderabad E-prix for Jaguar Tcs Racing

Sam Bird finished P3 in the group stage and made it through to the semi-finals of the Duels but was disqualified for exceeding track limits, along with two other drivers. Sam lined up in P6 on the grid.

Mitch led the Greenko Hyderabad E-Prix – a second home race for the team – for the first seven laps of the 32-lap race after both drivers held their position off the start line. On lap, Mitch took ATTACK MODE and lost three places as part of a strategic move to recoup energy. The Kiwi overtook the Sacha Fenestraz’s Nissan to move up to third place while Sam battled in fifth. On lap 13, Sam made a mistake which resulted in him tapping Fenestraz and crashing into teammate Mitch Evans, ultimately retiring both Jaguars from the race.

Customer-team Envision Racing showcased the speed and efficiency of the Jaguar I-TYPE 6 with a second-place finish for Nick Cassidy - the first podium for the partnership.

Sam Bird is sixth in the 2023 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship drivers’ standings, while Mitch Evans is twelfth.

Heading into the fifth round of the World Championship, Jaguar TCS Racing remain fifth in the 2023 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship teams’ standings.
