Round 15 - London: The Boy from Barnsley
This short film captures Sam Bird's final Formula E weekend with Jaguar TCS Racing, wrapping up not just a season-but a legacy. Nicknamed the 'Boy from Barnsley,' Bird's journey comes full circle in front of a home crowd at the London E-Prix. From reflective track walks to teary-eyed moments with his crew, the video doesn't just document a race-it reveals the soul of a driver whose heart has always been in it. There's a rawness in his goodbye, in the embraces, the helmet-off glances, and the subtle cheers that made his send-off deeply human. It's not about stats or podiums here-it's about legacy, emotion, and the way racing carves itself into the people who live it.

Cassidy Seals Round 15 Win in London as Porsche Leads Fia Teams' and Manufacturers' World Championships Ahead of Season Finale
Nick Cassidy took the win in the 2025 Marvel Fantastic Four London E-Prix Round 15 on his swansong weekend for Jaguar TCS Racing, with Mahindra Racing's Nyck de Vries and Porsche driver Pascal Wehrlein following the New Zealander was able to successfully combat de Vries' early ATTACK MODE and late PIT BOOST strategy to slice by the Dutchman out of the final turn on Lap 27 - leading from there to the flag despite de Vries' best Jaguar driver started fifth on the grid and ensured the team would follow up a double-win in Berlin with a third victory in a row - only the fifth team in Formula E history to manage that feat. A second consecutive win for Cassidy also meant longstanding Team Principal James Barclay – the man who headed Jaguar's return to world-class motorsport - would have silverware to celebrate on his final race weekend with the champion Wehrlein finished where he started in third, while securing the fastest lap of the race - key points for Porsche in the Teams' and FIA Manufacturers' World Championship fight. Season 8 champion Stoffel Vandoorne followed for Maserati MSG Racing in fourth, Brit Jake Dennis came home in fifth with Jean-Éric Vergne (DS PENSKE) rounded out the top win saw Cassidy climb to third in the Drivers' standings behind newly-crowned champion Oliver Rowland - who managed just 11th - and Wehrlein, while Porsche leads Nissan by 39 points in the Teams' World Championship with only 47 remaining. Porsche also heads Nissan 367 to 338 in the FIA Manufacturers' World Championship' Cassidy, No. 37, Jaguar TCS Racing: 'It's unbelievable! To win here at home for Jaguar and our team in front of a lot of our friends, family and partners who are here today, is incredible. I wasn't the happiest guy this morning but that was for a reason, and I knew we had good potential in the car. In that race I was able to show that, which is pretty cool. To be honest it was a little bit fluid - a huge shout out to my strategy team, I was really scared about not coming out of the pits after PIT BOOST in the lead of that second group, and it was tight but I was able to hang on there and that's what made the race. It meant that we could do the ATTACK MODES later which was really powerful.'Nyck de Vries, No, 21, Mahindra Racing said: 'We certainly are happy to be back and give the team a result they definitely deserve. In Jakarta we were on course for a great race but for various reasons we weren't able to bring home a podium. I'm very pleased to get it on the front row and execute a good race, so thank you very much to the entire team for giving me a great car today.'Pascal Wehrlein, No. 94, TAG Heuer Porsche said: 'I'm quite happy, I would have wanted more of course but more wasn't possible. That was what we had today and our goals are clear: we want to win the Teams' and Manufacturers' Championships so the points are very important for us. Nevertheless, I always want to win - every time I race - and today it was not possible. We take the positives and one more race to go tomorrow - I'm looking forward to that.'SCHEDULE: WHERE, WHEN AND HOW TO WATCH OR STREAM THE 2025 MARVEL FANTASTIC FOUR LONDON E-PRIX Round 16 on Sunday 27 July gets underway with just one Free Practice at 10:00 local time, followed by qualifying and the race at 12:20 and 17:05 local time, respectively.

Mitch Evans on his Berlin win after a frustrating wait: "It's been a really tough few months"
Mitch Evans (Image credit: Instagram) Formula E Season 11 seems to have turned out special and interesting for most of the drivers. Jaguar TCS Racing's Mitch Evans had started the season on a high by clinching the first E-Prix win in Sao Paulo, but in the following races throughout the season, the New Zealander couldn't even come close to the podium in any of the next 10 races. He has now opened up about finally closing the year on a high after clinching his second win of the season at the Berlin E-Prix. Mitch Evans on finally ending his streak of bad luck in Berlin It was unusual to see Mitch Evans failing to finish in the top 10 in any of the ten races that followed his victory in Sao Paulo. He won the first race of the season but was among the last finishers in the next 10 races. Mitch Evans simply wrote on Instagram after his much-awaited win in Berlin: 'Victory. Amazing day — pole + win in tricky conditions. Thanks to all the boys and girls at @jaguarracing.' The happy pictures of the driver lifting the winner's trophy, planting a kiss on it, and celebrating with the team — including teammate Nick Cassidy — said it all. The Jaguar driver opened up about the tough six months that had him finishing near the back of the field. Talking to after finally clinching his second win in Berlin, he said, "It's been a really tough few months, and it felt like I couldn't do anything right. I kept having problems; performance wasn't quite there, and qualifying was just too rapid, so I had to keep it together. Obviously, in the race, it was changeable conditions. I think the team really managed the strategy well. I had some problems after the pit stop, which allowed Pascal (Wehrlein) to get closer to me.' "So once it happened, I thought I might have to stop in the race, and I was just kind of like, well, that just sums up my season. Luckily, I was able to juggle both things and bring them home, but it just wasn't expected. I'm just very happy for my side of the garage, for the team — you know, it's been a good day for what's been a really difficult season," he added.
