  We establish a large deviation principle for chordal SLE$_\kappa$
parametrized by capacity, as the parameter $\kappa \to 0+$, in the topology
generated by uniform convergence on compact intervals of the positive real
line. The rate function is shown to equal the Loewner energy of the curve. This
strengthens the recent result of E. Peltola and Y. Wang who obtained the
analogous statement using the Hausdorff topology.
