António Félix da Costa’s switch to the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team for Season 9 was one of great
In his first season with Porsche in 2023, Da Costa had a mix of results, culminating in a standout victory at the Cape Town E-Prix. He faced inconsistency throughout the season, with strong performances in São Paulo and Berlin, but disappointing results in Monaco and Jakarta. His struggles to string together good results prevented him from challenging for the title. Porsche has shown their belief in Da Costa by having him focus solely on Formula E for the 2024 season, dropping his World Endurance Championship seat. Despite the challenges, Da Costa sees the previous season as a learning curve, acknowledging the difficulties of adapting to a new team and car. He believes that his teammate’s success motivated him to improve and now, with a better understanding of his team and the car, Da Costa feels more confident and prepared for the upcoming season.
