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.
