The Big Cat is on the radar of Formula E’s reigning world champion ahead of the Jeddah double-header.
Reigning Formula E world champion Oliver Rowland praised Jaguar for making the “biggest jump” since last season, highlighting their improvement from being “nowhere” previously. Despite scoring well in Miami through Mitch Evans’ victory, Jaguar has impressed many in the paddock during the opening races. The team struggled for performance last season but has shown visible progress in the right direction.

Rowland commended Jaguar’s progress, particularly noting António’s impressive qualifying performances in Mexico and other races. The upcoming Jeddah E-Prix is anticipated to be compelling, especially following the struggles teams faced at the circuit last year. Rowland acknowledged the differences between this season and his title-winning year, noting the increased competition and the importance of speed in one-lap performance.
