Formula E returns to the tracks after seven weeks, in a world championship that, as in recent seasons, is extremely evenly matched among drivers.
It is the turn of Sao Paulo to host the best competition of electric motorsport, and where Nick Cassidy, from Jaguar Racing, will seek to maintain the lead.
The Jaguar has been the most consistent driver, as he has not finished off the podium, something surprising for many experts, because despite his proven talent, it is only his first season with the team.
In second place is Porsche’s German driver, Pascal Wehrlein, who after winning the first E-Prix of the season in Mexico City, has remained in the points, although not with the same authority as Cassidy, as in the last two dates he has been off the podium.

Still in the battle
Behind Wehrlein, in third place, is DS Penske’s Frenchman Jean-Éric Vergne, who is the last driver with a chance of taking first place if he has a perfect weekend in Brazil.
This will be only the second Formula E race in Sao Paulo, after last year’s debut as the venue, in a race won by Jaguar’s New Zealand driver, Mitch Evans.
The race in Brazil is part of Formula E’s strategic moves to continue expanding its fan base.
Recently, the electric series announced the relocation of its global logistics headquarters to the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia, Spain, marking a significant operational change.
This strategic shift combines with an ambitious expansion of the Circuit, transforming it into a state-of-the-art development center for the all-electric ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.
Previously located at Britain’s Donington Park Circuit, the new global center in Valencia presents a strategic breakthrough in logistical efficiency and sustainability for Formula E.
