Jaguar Racing’s Mitch Evans was so close to a first win around the streets of Monte Carlo in Round 7, and to opening his 2020/21 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship account but for last lap drama. Mitch Evans (Jaguar Racing) was left hurting after the race win in Monaco slipped through his grasp half way around the final lap, as reigning champion Antonio Felix da Costa (DS TECHEETAH) made the most of his energy advantage to sensationally swoop by the Kiwi at the chicane. “It hurts but when you look back, I got there because I burned the energy under ATTACK MODE. I knew that was my only chance to get by them,” said Evans. “That meant on the second ATTACK MODE I had to consume a lot to get back to them. I finished probably where I should have had but it’s bound to hurt leading half way around the last lap and especially as it’s Monaco – everybody wants to win there.
