India, Jan. 11 -- Mahindra Racing secured its first podium of the 2026 Formula E season at the Mexico City E-Prix, with Edoardo Mortara finishing second to open the team's podium account for the year. The result came in round two of the championship, showing clear progress after a steady start to the year. Mortara made full use of his starting position and stayed in the mix as the race developed. The points haul lifted Mahindra Racing to fifth in the teams' standings after two races. The podium carried forward the form Mahindra showed late last season, where it ended the year among the top four teams.
