Scoring points in the next two rounds moved him up from sixth to sit fourth heading to the Abu Dhabi Formula One Grand Prix on the mixed street and purpose-built Yas Marina circuit. Evans is chomping at the bit to get back into the car having had no real seat time since the last race in Sochi, Russia back in mid-October.
"There's been a huge bloody gap between races, which is always painful," said Evans from Abu Dhabi. "No one ever wants a gap that long so I hope we have a good weekend.
"I can't wait to get back in the car and the whole team is keen to get going. I'm feeling good in myself and we've got a bit of momentum going at the moment having been on the podium a couple of times recently.
"Everything's coming together well and I hope we can finish on a high. The car seems to be working at the moment and I'm driving pretty good as well. We were quick here during pre-season testing and want to translate that into a good result.
"I also think the car is a little better now than what we had at the beginning of the year."
Racing this weekend will be a challenge for the drivers in GP2, as unlike the F1 race, those blokes will be racing in the evening one day and in the heat of the afternoon the next day. With practice scheduled in the morning, teams will have to cope with a wide variety of track and ambient temperatures. Meaning conditions in practice and qualifying will be different to during the race.
"Our first race [Saturday] is in twilight, which will be a first for us so that will be exciting.
"There are a lot of lights around to light up the circuit but it'll be strange as it's all artificial," said Evans.
While the Yas Marin track looks spectacular on television, especially at night, it's not the most scintillating of places to go racing.
The smooth surface makes the cars prone to wheel spin, and with the straights preceded by slow corners drivers will have to be wary of excess tyre wear early on.
"The track's not too bad but it's not the most exciting track I've ever raced on. It looks great under lights but it's half street and half permanent track. There are a few passing opportunities, which is nice, and the place always throws up a few curve balls.
"We didn't do too well here last year. I had issues in practice only being able to do one lap and didn't qualify too well. I had a DNF in race one and struggled in race two.
"This year should be better and we'll be going for a win to end the season on a good note," said Evans.
There are no confirmed plans for with whom, or where, Evans will be racing next year but he says discussions and negotiations are well under way.
There are a few things in the pipeline but he hasn't quite decided what direction to go in yet.
He and his management team will be in a position to make an announcement a few weeks after the last race of the season.
