Jakarta E-Prix 2025 results: Dan Ticktum registers first Formula E career win, Edoardo Mortara and Nico Mueller join him on podium
Image credit: Dan Ticktum/Instagram A new winner was very likely in Jakarta this year, and Dan Ticktum made sure he was the one lifting the winner's trophy in Indonesia. He secured the first victory of his career at the Jakarta E-Prix. The Cupra Kiro driver started from fifth on the grid and went on to beat the leading contenders at the Jakarta International E-Prix Circuit. Mahindra Racing's Edoardo Mortara finished second, and Andretti's Nico Mueller secured third place in the Formula E race. Jakarta E-Prix Formula E Round 12 results Dan Ticktum had claimed his first podium in Tokyo last month and has now gone on to win his first race. As a result, he immediately moved up to fifth place in the Formula E Driver Standings with 80 points. Edoardo Mortara, who started from sixth on the grid, secured his first podium of the season. But it was Nico Mueller of Andretti who delivered an impressive performance by gaining 10 positions to claim the final podium spot, after starting from 13th on the grid. TAG Heuer Porsche driver Antonio Felix Da Costa finished fourth, followed by Nick Cassidy in fifth. NEOM McLaren driver Taylor Barnard, who had shown promise in Qualifying by finishing second, ended up sixth in the final race. His teammate Sam Bird followed him in seventh. Envision Racing drivers Sebastien Buemi and Robin Frijns took the eighth and ninth positions, respectively. Surprises at Jakarta E-Prix final This year's leading Formula E driver, Oliver Rowland, ended up in tenth place after a disappointing Qualifying.

He received a three-place grid penalty for not following the Race Director's instructions. The winner of the inaugural Jakarta Formula E race in 2022, Mitch Evans of Jaguar TCS Racing, followed him in twelfth place.

Formula E S11 Mid-Season Highlights: Best Moments So Far
I just watched this clip of the best bits from Season 11 so far, and damn, it reminded me why I fell in love with electric racing in the first place. There were adrenaline-pumping overtakes in São Paulo, jaw-dropping rain-fueled action in Shanghai, strategic pit-boost chaos in Jeddah, and that satisfying rookie breakthrough. You catch glimpses of smiles, tension, relief, you name it. Some parts felt a bit patchy visually (like a phone-recorded fan cam thrown in), but that just makes it feel real. These moments aren't polished highlight reels—they're genuine, messy, and wildly entertaining. If you're a Formula E fan or just need some mid-season hype, this one's a keeper. Read More
