Antonio Felix da Costa secured a notable victory for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team at the Berlin E-Prix, marking a significant win on home soil for the German manufacturer. Starting 10th on the grid, da Costa skillfully navigated through the field, demonstrating exceptional energy management and race strategy.

Expressing his joy, da Costa highlighted the importance of winning in Germany, especially in front of numerous Porsche employees and guests who attended the race. "It feels great to win a home race for Porsche and give something back to the team," said da Costa​.

The race itself was characterized by intense early laps, with da Costa expertly avoiding collisions and maintaining a strategic position. He noted that the initial stages of the race were the most challenging, while the final laps were comparatively calmer​.
