Formula E Live Ticker
On January 11 , we will be providing live coverage of the second e-prix of the Formula E season in Mexico. You can find all the information about the event here in advance:
This also marks the end of the race weekend in Mexico. A good day for Porsche and their drivetrain, the day will only be better for Oliver Rowland who wins sensationally! With that, I bid you farewell! Feel free to take a look at the results!
It's a disaster for Jaguar. Mitch Evans retires and Nick Cassidy drives a completely invisible race. Cassidy only finished 14th behind both Envision drivers, who also scored no points.
Stoffel Vandoorne crosses the finish line in the points again after a tenth place in Sao Paulo and becomes seventh. De Vries secures points for Mahindra in eighth place, Müller finishes ninth and Taylor Barnard takes the final point in 10th place.
<p
A really strong Jake Dennis, who fought for victory for a long time, finished fourth. Fifth and sixth place for Vergne and Günther is also very good. With a little more luck and without the first safety car, they could possibly have finished on the podium.
Oliver Rowland's driving has been breathtaking since his return to Nissan. He does everything right again today and wins the race, while Nato doesn't even make it into the points!
OLIVER ROWLAND WINS IN MEXICO! Da Costa finishes second and Pascal Wehrlein third!
It will be really close for Di Grassi, Buemi and Mortara, none of them will be able to end attack mode before the end of the race! A penalty is imminent! The last lap is underway!
Mitch Evans drove into an unusually hard-braking Müller. As mentioned, the New Zealander is out.
The current top five are Rowland, Da Costa, Wehrlein, Dennis and Vergne. There are no additional laps.
The marshals are damn fast today! GREEN AGAIN! Rowland stays in front!
Oliver Rowland was lucky in the end. Thanks to the quick safety car finish, he still had a minute of attack mode left. He overtook two drivers on the start-finish straight, catching Wehrlein a few corners later.
Safety car again! Mitch Evans is in the wall now!
It is now clear what happened to Beckmann. Lucas Di Grassi touched him when turning in and his steering broke! RACING IS ENABLED AGAIN! OLIVER ROWLAND ROARS THROUGH THE FIELD! HE'S FIRST!!!
Rowland, Vergne and Günther lose a good chance of a podium or even victory with the safety car. The big winner could be Mitch Evans. He still has four minutes left in attack mode and is currently in 8th place.
DAVID BECKMANN IN THE WALL! The yellow flag is out just as Rowland has activated his attack mode. Safety car comes out!
The DS Penske now want to make up lost ground. Both are driving in their six-minute attack mode. They are currently in 6th and 7th place!
Rowland is in fourth place and is allowed to drive round the loop once more. However, the Nissan driver is currently almost four seconds behind the leader.
Jake Dennis has tyre problems, he reports on the pit radio that his front left tyre is flat!
Antonio Felix Da Costa overtakes Dennis and now leads the race! Behind Dennis, Wehrlein is looking for the gap he needs to overtake... HE FINDS IT! Porsche is back in the double lead!
Da Costa also stays ahead of Wehrlein after a long drive round the loop. The top 4 consists only of Andretti and Porsche - only Porsche drives!
Dennis counters perfectly! Andretti play their team game perfectly. Nico Müller holds off Wehrlein enough for Jake Dennis to stay in front even after his Attack Mode activation.
Pascal Wehrlein activates his six-minute attack mode! The world champion drops back to 5th place, with Da Costa leading the way ahead of Dennis and Müller.
Nico Müller uses his attack mode for the second time. He quietly works his way forward and now catches Rowland for fourth place!
Oliver Rowland and Da Costa are now in attack mode. They catch Vergne without any problems. Wehrlein is then also overtaken by Da Costa. the portuguese now also catches dennis!
DENNIS OVERTAKES WEHRLEIN! Wehrlein aggressively closes the door in the stadium, the two almost collide, but Dennis is ultimately able to prevail and overtake the German!
CHAOS IN FRONT! Pascal Wehrlein activates attack mode and is able to stay in front. Da Costa loses FOUR places in an attempt to help Wehrlein. Dennis is the new runner-up! Vergne catches Rowland for 3rd place!
Vergne defends with everything he's got! First he attacks Rowland on the outside, which doesn't work. Dennis pushes into the newly created space on the inside and shortly afterwards Müller also tries to attack from the outside. But the two-time world champion remains fourth!
The order at the front is unchanged. The top seven have also not yet used attack mode. Rowland continues to put pressure on Da Costa, Vergne in turn on Rowland.
Barnard and Beckmann also collided and Beckmann's Cupra Kiro only has half a front wing left!
Edoardo Mortara had to come into the pit lane. After a collision, he probably suffered a puncture.
Sam Bird and Taylor Barnard swap places as the young Briton's attack mode was over. Shortly afterwards, Barnard drops further places as the Maserati squeezes past.
One of the losers of the start phase is Mitch Evans. The New Zealander has lost two places and is now in 7th place behind Günther and Dennis.
Antonio Felix Da Costa is right behind Pascal Wehrlein and is under a lot of pressure from Rowland.
The field of riders looks well organised and there are few overtaking manoeuvres. Taylor Barnard is the first to drive in attack mode in 16th place and sets the new fastest lap.
Dan Ticktum collided with Hughes in the early stages and spun, he's right at the back!
Lucas Di Grassi was allowed to start from 17th place, his demotion only applies to Jeddah.
Rowland overtakes Jean Eric Vergne in turn 1 and is now chasing the Porsche!
The lights are out! MEXICO IS UNDER FULL POWER! Wehrlein can defend his lead ahead of Da Costa and Vergne!
The drivers roll onto their starting positions...
Mexico is electrified, the E-Prix is sold out, it's packed! The second race of the season is about to start!
The drivers get into their cars and the mechanics have to leave the starting grid.
Lucas Di Grassi has to start from the back of the grid. He qualified better, but was penalised shortly before the start of the race. The MGU in the Lola had to be replaced.
Evan's team-mate and compatriot Nick Cassidy, on the other hand, will start from penultimate place. Ahead of him are the two Envision drivers. All three had their qualifying lap times cancelled due to technical faults. It could be a "Jaguar"problem, as they all share the same powertrain.
Pascal Wehrlein is the undisputed king of qualifying in Mexico. He will start the race from pole position. Behind him lurks his team-mate, Antonio Felix Da Costa. But Jean Eric Vergne in third and Rowland in fourth could also jeopardise Wehrlein's lead on the first lap. Mitch Evans will also be starting not far away in fifth place, having won from last place on the grid in Sao Paulo.
There are only 15 minutes to go until the second race of the season opens. The drivers and their cars are already on the grid and the final preparations are underway. So, welcome back to the live ticker!
