Félix da Costa's Victory Hopes Dashed in Tokyo Formula E Race After Collision with Wehrlein
Portuguese driver António Félix da Costa (Jaguar) was eliminated from contention for victory in the 14th round of the Formula E World Championship in Tokyo after a collision with German driver Pascal Wehrlein (Porsche). Starting from third, da Costa finished ninth, scoring only two points. He expressed frustration, stating he had managed energy perfectly and was 90% certain of a win. The incident was triggered by a confusing strategy from his Jaguar teammate Mitch Evans during the mandatory pit stop window, which allowed Wehrlein to get alongside and make contact. Wehrlein retired from the race, while Evans regained the championship lead with 144 points. Da Costa remains fifth with 113 points. The second race of the Japanese weekend takes place on Sunday.
