December 2024 marked the start of Season 11 with the Sao Paulo E-Prix, with Mitch Evans taking the highlight and only points of his season by going from last to first; a chance where Evans and Jaguar thought it was their season, their time to shine. Ultimately, it was not to be. Now, however, we are entering the penultimate weekend with a double header at the iconic Tempelhof circuit in Berlin, the scene where he stalled back in 2021 and Nyck De Vries picked up his world championship.
Anyway, onto this season. This weekend is make or break for many drivers out of contract or looking to switch teams. Certain drivers, such as Nick Cassidy, are rumoured to be signed to other teams already, but it’s to be confirmed officially.
Preview:

This 2.347 km long circuit is an icon on the Formula E calendar for drivers, teams and fans! The array of corners, run down towards turn 1 and turns 10, 11 and 12, offer great overtaking opportunities. With new drivers Sergio Sette Camara and Felipe Drugovich making their season debut here due to Norman Nato and Nyck De Vries prioritising the World Endurance Championship in Brazil, this will be a weekend to watch!
Predictions:
Round 13:
Pole Position: Pascal Wehrlein
The reigning world champion will want to delay Oliver Rowland securing the championship, especially as this is his home race. I can see both Porsche and Pascal putting all of their eggs into this basket in order to maximise the result for the first competitive session of the weekend.
Race Winner: Maximilian Guenther
Is this a bold choice? Kind of is my answer to that. Guenther has really fitted into his new team after his DS Penske promotion. With his home race, his chance for a home victory is real.
Podium: Jaguar and Nissan powered cars
I am keeping my options wide open for this one, however, I think both of these powertrains will be strong around the German circuit. I think the driver most desperate to be on the podium will be Mitch Evans who has not scored since race 1 and Sergio Sette Camara who is joining this round in place of Norman Nato.
Round 14:
Pole Position: Sergio Sette Camara
Probably the most bold prediction considering the Brazilian’s lack of experience in the Nissan-powered car. He’ll want to get everything out of the car and show that he deserves the seat next to Rowland.
Race Winner: Oliver Rowland
The championship leader will have us waiting until the 3rd last race of the season to claim the title! I’m sure he would want to claim the title at home in London, but there are no guarantees in this sport
Podium: Porsche-powered 2nd and 3rd
Quite different from the other predictions, but this could be a Tag Heuer Porsche, Andretti or Cupra Kiro. Nico Hülkenberg got his first podium in F1; so many Beckmann can get theirs!
