The German automative giant picked up 64 points over the course of the Tokyo double-header, thanks to Dan Ticktum<\/a>‘s victory on Saturday and a double podium finish for new championship leader Jake Dennis<\/a>. For Porsche drivers Pascal Wehrlein<\/a> and Nico M\u00fcller<\/a>, the weekend was less fruitful, with both drivers leaving the Japanese capital pointless.\u00a0<\/p>\n

HANKOOK DEBRIEF: Five things we learned in Tokyo<\/a><\/p>\n

Thankfully for Porsche, who are celebrating their 75th anniversary in 2026, the support of customer teams CUPRA KIRO<\/a> and Andretti<\/a> proved to be enough to create an insurmountable lead ahead of Jaguar<\/a> and wrap up the title with two rounds remaining.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cA big thank you to our development team, the factory team and our customer teams, who helped Porsche secure a second Manufacturers\u2019 World Championship title,\u201d Florian Modlinger, Director Factory Motorsport Formula E said about the accomplishment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really proud of everyone involved in this project. On our side, we came away with four valuable points thanks to Nico\u2019s seventh-place finish. It could have been more after making the right call to switch to dry tyre pressures, but the time lost in the pits due to a procedural error ultimately limited us to seventh. Without that, he could have been in the fight for the win or a podium. On Pascal\u2019s side, it was another tough day. However, it\u2019s still all to play for.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

This is the second consecutive season that Porsche have secured the Manufacturers’ World Championship, having seen off stiff competition from Jaguar and Nissan<\/a> last year to claim the title by 33 points. Their impressive margin this year (97 points ahead of London) has been helped by all six drivers behind the wheel of Porsche machinery scoring podiums – an impressive feat for the manufacturer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

With one championship already secured, attention turns to the Drivers’ Championship<\/a> and Teams’ Championship<\/a>, as both go down to the wire in London. Porsche currently trail Jaguar TCS Racing in the teams’ standings by 14 points, with both teams failing to capitalise on the others misfortune in Tokyo.<\/p>\n

Pascal Wehrlein sits third in the drivers’ standings, after failing to score points in Rounds 14 & 15, he trails championship leader, Andretti’s Jake Dennis, by five points. But with 58 points up for grabs in the season finale, there’s everything still to play for.\u00a0<\/p>\n
