'I could have passed Dan Ticktum': Edoardo Mortara regrets Attack Mode strategy at Jakarta E-Prix

Image credit: Formula E Formula E Season 11 has turned out well for most teams, with new podium winners emerging in each round. At the recently held Jakarta E-Prix, it was Mahindra Racing's Edoardo Mortara who secured his first podium of the season and the team's second. While he's happy to have claimed second place in Jakarta, he feels they could have achieved even more. His teammate, Nyck De Vries, was handed a ten-second time penalty for colliding with Jake Dennis as they approached the finish line. Edoardo Mortara on his second place finish in Jakarta Edoardo Mortara joined Mahindra Racing in 2023 and had been chasing a podium finish ever since. Speaking after securing second place at the Jakarta E-Prix, the 38-year-old said, 'I'm feeling kind of disappointed for the team because I think that more was possible for us, but actually happy for me. It's been a long time coming, this podium, and if I look back, there were several occasions where, with a bit more luck, we could have changed it. ' Mortara found his podium opportunity when both his teammate Nyck De Vries and Andretti's Jake Dennis were removed from contention after their collision. 'But nevertheless, super happy with today's race. I think we managed the strategy pretty well, especially with the first Attack Mode. We got a little bit unlucky with the Safety Car and Full Course Yellow because I think I could have made good use of my Attack Mode and passed Dan [Ticktum]. I was in front of him before the second Attack Mode. Nevertheless, super happy with second place and already looking forward to the next one,' he said. However, Mortara regrets that Jakarta isn't a double-header this year, unlike its last edition in 2023. "Right from the start of the year, we're showing more and more performance, and this weekend we were really, really good. It's a shame that we only have one race here. I would have hoped to have a second one," he told in an interview. Edoardo Mortara on being part of Mahindra Racing Now running high on confidence, Mortara aims to continue the momentum in the upcoming Berlin double-header. He has achieved multiple podiums in Berlin in previous years, including one win. Reflecting on Mahindra Racing's significant improvement this season, Mortara said, "This year has been crucial for us. We brought some big updates in terms of software that helped us close a bit of the gap with the front-runners. I feel that now we have a package that is capable — not always, but on certain race weekends — of challenging at the front, and we probably had the best package in the race. Nevertheless, this result (Jakarta) shows great promise for the final race weekends, especially Berlin, which has always been a good one for me. " Also Read: Dan Ticktum on why he looked subdued after Jakarta win: 'There were lot of emotions, from adversity and hate I've had to deal with' Mortara's podium has pushed him up the 2025 Formula E Driver Standings. He is now in 9th position with 65 points. Let's hope he adds another podium to his tally in Berlin.

Chicago area retailers, consumers concerned about effects of President Trump's sweeping tariffs

President Trump's sweeping new tariffs have launched a historic global trade war and rattled the markets — with Wall Street having suffered its worst one-day drop Thursday since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic five years ago. The economic uncertainty also has some consumers and stores spooked, as it is not yet known how much more consumers will pay for nearly everything they buy. Stepping into the Abt store in north suburban Glenview, one can find just about any electronic or appliance. Shoppers are always out looking for details. On Thursday, Kevin Course and his son were searching for appliances for their Mount Prospect home renovation. "I think it's going to have an impact on how everyone renovates their home, and I think it might stop a bunch of people from renovating their home and/or construction in general," Course said. Yet with the talk of tariffs as high as 34%, some consumers are left wondering what it means for them. "It's going to suck," said Course. However, not everyone was worried about it. "It's just a bargaining tool right now, so I'm not too worried about any of the tariffs," said Russ Loken. "I'm kind of glad it's happening." Whether consumers believe the tariffs are tactic or not, stores like Abt, which have a majority of their appliances coming from overseas, are now prepared — because they know if the tariffs last for too long sale, prices will eventually go up. "It's going to trickle-down. We're going to feel it. Our customers are going to feel it," said Shirley Hood of Abt. "But right now, we're not worried about it." The locally owned electronics store said the moment the president started talking about tariffs in January, they took a huge step. "When we heard what he was planning on doing, we started ordering extra from our suppliers we doubled our orders," said Hood. This means currently, Abt has enough supplies in stock to hold them for some time. But the problem is once that stock is depleted, customers at Abt will see the tariffs' impact on prices. "If you are thinking about redoing your kitchen or replacing something, do it now," said Hood. "Your best price is going to come now, because once these tariffs kick in — once we are not able to do anything about the price increase — those prices will be transferred to the customer as well."
