How Cassidy put Citroen on top in Mexico thriller

The first major international race of 2026 proved to be a thriller at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez as Nick Cassidy scored Citroen Racing’s first Formula E victory in only its second race.

The Kiwi scored possibly his greatest E-Prix win from 13th on the grid after an audaciously clinical Attack Mode strategy was pulled against all the odds. Some brilliant overtaking was also built in to the drive which Cassidy pulled off superbly to head a close train of Edoardo Mortara, Oliver Rowland, Taylor Barnard and Jake Dennis over the finishing line.

Andrew van de Burgt and Sam Smith pull away the layers of strategic intrigue armed with The Stat Pack powered by Infosys, and also discuss other great performances including Sebastien Buemi’s mighty pole position lap and Taylor Barnard’s ohh so close perfect lap for DS Penske.

The ever-controversial Dan Ticktum didn’t disappoint in the ranting stakes with a blistering opinion of what he deemed to be the stewards’ shortcomings, and his teammate Pepe Marti’s astonishing run from last on the grid to seventh place is also analysed.
