Dan Ticktum feels his maiden Formula E victory in the Jakarta E-Prix provides vindication and has proved doubters wrong. Ticktum has garnered something of a "bad boy" reputation over the years, but he feels too much focus has been put on his personality, and his past successes – which include a pair of Macau Grand Prix wins and victories in Formula 2 – that have earned him a spot on the Formula E grid get overlooked.
