London ePrix Free Practice 1 – Season 11 at ExCeL Circuit
/ Jul 26, 2025, 01:20PM IST The London ePrix FP1 session—that's Round 15 of Formula E Season 11, held at the iconic ExCeL Circuit in London. It was such a thrill to see Pascal Wehrlein top the session in his Porsche, clocking a blistering 1:08.026—a full two seconds faster than last year's benchmark. Jake Dennis (Andretti) was right behind him in second, with Jaguar's Nick Cassidy in third .The pace was noticeably quicker compared to 2024, and there was even a scary pause when Lucas di Grassi's Lola‑Yamaha slowed mid‑lap and brought out the red flags. It felt electric seeing the grid push harder than ever, and the mix of indoor and outdoor sections at ExCeL added visual drama and unpredictability. Clearly this finale weekend has momentum, even though the Drivers' title had already been decided in Berlin—this still feels like chance to win the Teams' and Manufacturers' Championship for Porsche. For longtime fans, it's a homecoming of spectacular speed and strategy.

Formula E secures 10-year extension with FIA for World Championship
Formula E (Image credit: Formula E) In good news for Formula E, a multi-year agreement extension has secured the rights to the FIA Formula E World Championship for an additional 10 years from 2038, when the current agreement ends. This ensures a long and thrilling future for the FIA Formula E World Championship. The long-term extension will enable Formula E to grow further, build strategic long-range partnerships, and drive greater fan engagement. Why Formula E deserves to continue At present, Formula E continues to focus on its phased development strategy for its racing cars — delivering faster top speeds, greater acceleration, enhanced aerodynamics, and improved tyre performance. These developments highlight the series' increased relevance to consumers and the wider EV market, with greater 'race to road' technology transfer. With electric vehicle sales projected to rise to over 40% of global vehicle sales by 2030, and global lithium-ion battery production expected to triple by 2030, the relevance of Formula E and its technological advancements is more critical than ever. The Formula E GEN3 Evo already represents a step-change in performance: 0–60 mph in just 1.82 seconds (30% faster than a current Formula 1 car), a 200 mph top speed, and nearly 50% of the energy needed to complete a race regenerated during the event. It is designed with sustainability at its core and includes tyres made with 35% recycled materials and bodywork incorporating recycled carbon fibre and natural fibres. Formula E sees the participation of major automotive manufacturers including Porsche, Jaguar, Nissan, Maserati, Stellantis, Mahindra, and Lola-Yamaha. Since its first race in Beijing in 2014, Formula E has grown by 20% year-on-year, reaching around 400 million fans globally and attracting a television audience of approximately half a billion. FIA and Formula E comment on agreement extension The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), the global governing body for motorsport and mobility organisations, has announced a multi-year extension to its agreement with Formula E Holdings Limited (majority-owned by Liberty Global). Mohammed Ben Sulayem, President at the FIA, said, 'The extension of the agreement governing the FIA Formula E World Championship is a fantastic outcome for the sport and a clear reflection of our ongoing strategy at the FIA to foster long-term stability, innovation, and growth across all areas of motorsport.' He further said, 'This milestone reaffirms our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and technological progress, which are all central to the Championship's unique identity and purpose. It also aligns with our broader goal of increasing global participation and driving more accessible motorsport for all. We are delighted to be continuing this journey with Formula E, and I look forward to seeing it grow even further, both on and off the track, in the years to come. ' FIA Chief Commercial Officer Craig Edmondson, said, 'Formula E has not only demonstrated impressive growth since its inception, but has also led the way on sustainable innovation in our industry. This is a landmark agreement for the FIA and Formula E, and we are excited to be working with the Championship in the years to come.' Liberty Global CEO Mike Fries said, 'We've believed in Formula E since day one, and this extension reaffirms our confidence in where it's headed. This is the motorsport of the future - a championship that combines the very latest technology, close-combat racing, and a mission that really matters. 'With the FIA's continued backing, we can now take the next big steps - scaling the sport, growing its global fanbase, and continuing to push the boundaries of what electric racing can achieve. With this new agreement in place, Formula E is now positioned better than ever to define the future of motorsport - more innovative, more inclusive, more sustainable - and to inspire the next generation of fans, drivers, and partners around the world. " Also Read: Formula E London E-Prix 2025: Pascal Wehrlein tops FP1, Jake Dennis finishes second Formula E CEO Jeff Dodds also added, 'Formula E's growth since its inception has been nothing short of extraordinary, with hundreds of millions of fans and world-class teams and drivers deciding to choose highly competitive electric racing.

The more deals Trump gets, the more confidence markets gain
Live Events (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our ETMarkets WhatsApp channel The world's investors are enjoying a confidence boost after months of uncertainty as President Donald Trump finally starts signing trade stocks extended a record, risk-sensitive currencies strengthened and bonds fell after a trade agreement with Japan contained lower tariffs than Trump had threatened earlier this month. The big picture takeaway seems to be a light at the end of a negotiating tunnel that will further fuel investor optimism that the worst of their fears on trade are behind a major trading partner, the Japan deal is potentially a big step forward toward the conclusion of tariff-related uncertainties, according to Jane Foley, head of FX strategy at Rabobank.'Overall the deal will justify the market's rolling back of the fears related to US recession and inflation seen earlier in the year and should help support risk appetite,' she said. 'It raises pressure on the European trade negotiators, though at the same time it will also raise hope that they can still pull something out of the bag ahead of the deadline.'The deal with Japan sets tariffs on the nation's imports at 15%, including for autos — by far the biggest component of the trade deficit between the two countries. A separate agreement with the Philippines set a 19% rate, the same level as Indonesia agreed and a percentage point below Vietnam's 20% baseline level, signaling that the bulk of Southeast Asia is likely to get a similar the deals, effective tariff rates still remain much higher than at the beginning of the year, but below the more punitive rates suggested Topix Index rallied more than 3% to hit a one-year high, with Toyota Motor Corp. surging as much as 16%, the most since 1987. Hopes that the deal could pave the way for an agreement in Europe also boosted shares in the region, with Europe's Stoxx 600 gauge rising 1.2%, the most in a month, led by automakers such as Porsche, Volkswagen and Stellantis, each up more than 6%.Shares in other sectors such as pharma and construction — which have a big exposure to the US market — also rallied on Wednesday, while the yield on US 10-year Treasuries rose three basis points to 4.38%, halting five days of Auto Stocks Set for One of Best Days in 2025 | Porsche, Stellantis and Volkswagen among key gainersEarlier this year, Trump's rapidly-shifting tariff policies sent global markets spiraling amid recession fears and worries about the outlook for US equities, bonds and even the status of the dollar as the world's reserve currency. But risk assets have rebounded as investors saw signs of progress in negotiations and the greenback has steadied.'Since this news counters the 'Sell America' trade that was exhibited in the first 5 months of the year, if should help support short-covering in the dollar,' Rabobank's Foley deal might be setting a precedent for trade negotiations happening with Europe, according to Fabien Yip, a market analyst at IG in Australia. That will provide some optimism for global markets in their expectations for what will eventually happen with Europe and China, she said.'It looks like Trump has been making a few concessions with several key trading partners, including Vietnam, Indonesia, and now Japan,' Yip said. 'So the deal today will be quite meaningful for the global rally.'With a deal with Beijing still a key factor for the global economy, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will meet his Chinese counterparts in Stockholm for their third round of trade talks aimed at extending a tariff truce and widening the discussions. European Union and US negotiators are still in intensive talks, as they seek to clinch a trade deal by Aug. 1.'Collectively, this more positive trade news has really helped to ease investor fears that tariffs are about to snap back higher on August 1,' wrote Deutsche Bank AG's Jim Reid in a note to clients. 'But of course, the threat of much higher tariffs still remains for several large economies, including the 30% on the EU, 35% on Canada and 50% on Brazil.'Mohit Kumar, the chief European strategist at Jefferies International sees trade agreements signed in the near term with the rest of the US's key trading partners.'While a negative from a macro point of view, the world can live with 15% or so tariffs,' he said.
