Jaguar has confirmed ahead of this weekend's season-ending Formula
E London E-Prix double-header that Nick Cassidy will depart
following the conclusion of the event. It had been reported
several weeks ago that Cassidy would exit the Coventry-based outfit
at the end of Season 12, to complete a move to Stellantis. Cassidy
has raced Jaguar machinery for all three seasons of the Gen3 era,
firstly with Envision, before moving to the factory squad for
Seasons 10 and 11. Despite wins in Shanghai and Berlin, it has
been a difficult campaign for the New Zealander, who has been
unable to fight for the drivers' title. Despite five victories for
Jaguar as a manufacturer this season, its Gen3 Evo package has
proven to be weaker than Porsche's and Nissan's, impacting
Cassidy's and Mitch Evans' title hopes. Cassidy could still finish
second in the standings, but the title itself was secured by Oliver
Rowland in Berlin. With team principal James Barclay also leaving
after London, it represents the end of an era for the Big Cat. "The
decision to leave Jaguar TCS Racing has not been an easy one, but
ultimately it is the right one for me personally," said Cassidy.
"I'd like to thank everyone at the team for their support since I
joined at the beginning of Season 10. We have fought hard and had
some great success together. I particularly want to thank the
engineers and mechanics on the #37 side of the garage – we've made
some amazing memories! "Looking ahead to London this weekend, we'll
work as hard as ever as a team to ensure we're competitive and
fighting for another top three finish in the Drivers' World
Championship."
