PANASONIC JAGUAR RACING’S MITCH EVANS ‘READY TO FIGHT’ FOR FORMULA E CHAMPIONSHIP IN NEW YORK TITLE DECIDER

Returning to the podium in Switzerland proved that we have the speed to compete at the very front in Formula E. This has given us a lot of confidence going into the last two races in New York. I qualified on the front row there last year and I really like the track in Brooklyn. There is a big gap to Jean-Eric (Vergne) in the points but I prefer to be the hunter than the hunted. If we get a big points haul on Saturday it will be all to play for on Sunday. I really have nothing to lose. I’ve finished every race this year and I am ready to fight for this championship. It is not over by a long way.

Following my best result for Panasonic Jaguar Racing in Bern, I’m heading into the New York double header with a lot of confidence. With Mitch pushing for the Championship title, my main focus is on picking up as many points as possible for the team, maintaining the positive run we’ve seen in the second half of this season. If I am in the points that leaves less chances for Mitch’s title rivals.

Bern was a brilliant weekend for the entire Panasonic Jaguar Racing team with Mitch securing his second podium and Alex his best finish for the team.
Back to back races adds a layer of difficulty we don’t see that often, but as we head to New York for the season finale, we’re in a confident mood and it’s all still to play for.
Mitch is sitting in a brilliant position in the Driver Standings and he and the team are working incredibly hard to give ourselves the best opportunity to push for the title. The ABB FIA Formula E Championship has thrown up many surprises this season, and with a little luck, who knows what might happen come Sunday evening. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds.
