London E-Prix Round 15 results: Nick Cassidy wins 3rd race of season 11, climbs into top three in Driver Standings
It was Jaguar TCS Racing's day at the London E-Prix on Saturday. Fresh off his Berlin win, Mitch Evans started from pole but spun during the race and lost his lead. It was eventually his teammate Nick Cassidy who went on to win Round 15.
The victory was even more special for Cassidy, who had announced that he would be leaving the team after the season wraps up on Sunday. He also pushed Taylor Barnard to fourth by taking the third place in the Formula E Driver Standings.

It's an honour to drive for you. Thank you so much. That one was for you guys.'
Cassidy was followed by Mahindra Racing's Nyck de Vries, who secured second place on the podium — his second of the season. He had started from the front row and managed to hold his ground. TAG Heuer Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein finished third, adding another podium to his season. He currently sits second in the Formula E Drivers' Standings behind championship leader Oliver Rowland.

DS Penske's Jean-Eric Vergne came in sixth, while Mahindra Racing's Edoardo Mortara secured seventh. Envision Racing's Robin Frijns was eighth, Nissan's Norman Nato ninth, and Mitch Evans — despite starting on pole — ended in 10th after his spin. Championship leader Rowland finished 11th.
Hits and Misses at the London E-Prix
The race saw early drama when DS Penske's Maximilian Günther hit the wall right after the start, triggering a pile-up that also involved McLaren's Taylor Barnard and Sam Bird, as well as Lola Yamaha ABT's Zane Maloney.
Near the finish line, Cupra Kiro's Dan Ticktum also crashed into the wall and retired from the race. Earlier, Ticktum had made contact with Mitch Evans' Jaguar, causing Evans to spin and lose his lead — ultimately finishing 10th.

Nissan to use Formula E to develop future electric performance cars
Nissan 's next electric halo car could be born on a Formula E racetrack. The Japanese car manufacturer is exploring using the Formula E platform to develop its future electric performance car prototypes. In that case, the future Nissan high-performance electric cars could use electric motors developed with technology sourced from Formula E. Nissan is currently desperately in search of a turnaround move. While the carmaker is focusing on mainstream vehicles, including SUVs, to find its path back to stability, the company is also exploring something a bit more ambitious, which includes high-performance electric cars. For this, Nissan is aiming to rely on the technology developed by its Formula E team. Also Read : Upcoming cars in India Speaking to the British automotive publication Autocar UK, Tommaso Volpe, Head of Nissan's Formula E operations, said that the brand is actively looking at ways to connect its racing division with Nismo, the company's performance car division. One of the key ideas on the table is to create some prototypes based on a normal chassis that can help the Nismo division to enhance the performance of electric cars, Volpe said. He also stated that it would mark a new level of collaboration between motorsport and road car development at Nissan, especially as the company is aiming to re-establish its identity in the EV space. Nissan aims to revamp Nismo division With this strategy, Nissan is aiming to revamp the Nismo. The OEM has a Nismo-branded version of the Ariya in its product portfolio, but it is not necessarily a hardcore performer that is expected from the Nismo division. Speaking about this, Volpe noted that it has no influence from Formula E, but in the future, the automaker could first develop a prototype, and then the company would be able to use it as a platform for future products. The report stated that any such future prototype from Nissan could use the same basic dual-motor setup as the current Formula E race car, which is capable of churning out 462 bhp peak power, but as part of the 2026/2027 season, will be upgraded to deliver roughly 789 bhp. Nissan aims to bring track technology to street Volpe believes the next-generation powertrain to be used at Formula E could be the point where race-bred innovations start to filter more directly into Nissan's road cars. 'The development of the Gen4 cars will be when potential transfers will come from the racing cars to future [road] products, because the level of performance and efficiency will be pushed even more to the limit," he reportedly said. The Nissan official also noted that the Gen4 Formula E cars will feature all-wheel drive. This aligns well with Nissan's experience in developing AWD electric systems, such as the one used in the Ariya. Volpe sees this as a strong area where technology from the race track could come to road-going EVs. 'The regulations of Gen4 have been written in an open conversation with manufacturers," he said, while adding, 'One of the reasons all-wheel drive is there is because of a strong push by Nissan and some other manufacturers, because all-wheel drive is the trend for the core business in the future."
