Dateline Sao Paulo – December 6th 2025
Formula E reports: Andretti's Jake Dennis started on pole and converted to the win in the 2025 Google Cloud São Paulo E-Prix Round 1, though it was anything but lights-to-flag in a hectic 30-lap race. The Brit kept in touch with the leaders throughout as he played the waiting game before making it by the Citroen of Nick Cassidy - who'd flown through the pack with a late charge - for what would be the definitive move on Lap 27. A huge shunt for rookie Pepe Marti (CUPRA KIRO) - who flew spectacularly over the top of Jaguar's Antonio Felix da Costa - meant a late red flag and a one-lap sprint to the finish. Dennis was able to hold off reigning champion Oliver Rowland (Nissan), who'd started all the way down in 13th - and Cassidy.
Reports JTCSR: António Félix da Costa and Mitch Evans qualified strongly in São Paulo, their respective starting positions of sixth and ninth giving them both the potential for strong points finishes. At the race start, both António and Mitch avoided a first corner incident involving three other drivers, and then ran strongly towards the front of the pack as everyone managed their energy. After taking the first of their two, four‑minute, Attack Modes on lap nine, António and Mitch led the field running first and second respectively. Just before the half‑way point, Mitch began to suffer from poor balance after contact which saw him fall back, while António continued to run in the top five before taking his second Attack Mode with seven laps remaining. However, his challenge was compromised after a safety car was deployed negating his Attack Mode. As the race restarted on lap 27, António was still in contention for a top‑six finish, and Mitch immediately took his remaining Attack Mode and started to move through from P13 towards a potential strong points finish. However, Mitch’s race was ended with two laps to go after a racing incident which put him out, triggering a second safety car. As the field slowed, Pepe Marti ran into the back of Antonio at speed, bringing out the red flag. Thankfully Pepe landed safely and António was able to return to the pits from sixth position. Following FIA‑mandated repairs to the rear wing of his I‑TYPE 7, when the restart came – with just one lap of full‑speed racing left – António had to start from 12th which is where he finished. He was later moved up a place to 11th following a five‑second penalty for Drugovich (Andretti).
