Da Costa joins Jaguar TCS Racing

Jaguar TCS Racing have confirmed Antonio Felix da Costa will take up a race seat alongside Mitch Evans for the 2025/26 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship.

Da Costa – the 2019/20 Driver’ World Champion – joins Jaguar TCS Racing from Porsche. With 12 wins to his name, five of those in the GEN3 era of Formula E, the Portuguese has consistently shown his exceptional pace and race craft in the all-electric World Championship.

A title contending driver in Formula E since its inception, da Costa is widely respected for his deep technical expertise and has earned a reputation as one of the most exciting and accomplished talents in electric motorsport.

Together, da Costa and Evans boast 270 combined Formula E race starts, 26 race wins, 60 podiums and 18 poles – more joint race starts and wins than any other team pairing in Formula E history.

Da Costa quickly rose through the ranks of junior single-seaters following a standout karting career. He impressed in the Formula 3 Euro Series, GP3 and Formula Renault 3.5, earning a coveted spot in the Red Bull Junior Team.

By 2010, he made his Formula 1 test debut with Force India and, just two years later, became Red Bull Racing’s official test driver – cementing his reputation as a rising star.

Joining Jaguar TCS Racing, a team with a rich legacy in motorsport, is an incredible honour. The team’s resilience and pursuit of performance and innovation is something I’ve always admired, and I’m looking forward to getting behind the wheel of the impressive Jaguar I-TYPE 7. Partnering with Mitch, one of the most experienced drivers in Formula E and a close friend, is a privilege. I’m excited for this next chapter – to learn, push boundaries, and play my part in driving the team forward for Season 12 and beyond.
Da Costa on the news.

We’re delighted to welcome da Costa to Jaguar TCS Racing. His performance over the last 11 years in this championship has been consistently impressive, and his approach to racing aligns perfectly with our values as a team. As we enter the final season of the GEN3 Evo era, we’re confident that we will see great results with António and Mitch, as they form arguably the most competitive and exciting driver pairing on the grid.
Ian James, Jaguar TCS Racing Team Principal.
