Nick Cassidy ended an almost one-year wait for a podium finish in the second race of last weekend’s Monaco E-Prix.
Nick Cassidy admitted that both he and Jaguar have been frustrated by the current struggles in Formula E, but considers his Monaco podium a crucial turning point.
Despite being contenders for the championship in the past two seasons, Season 11 has served as a wake-up call for Cassidy, with Jaguar’s Gen3 Evo package not meeting expectations.
The reigning champions have been stuck in the midfield, and Cassidy has faced a string of unfortunate events.
His impressive podium finish in the second race of the Monaco E-Prix marked his first podium since the Shanghai race nearly a year prior, sparking joyous celebrations within the team.
After finishing 18th in the first race, Cassidy and the team felt a mix of emotions, but a breakthrough in the package during Sunday’s practice session boosted Cassidy’s confidence.
Even though starting 14th posed a challenge, Cassidy’s strong performance early in the race reinforced his belief in the team’s capabilities and potential for success.
