Buemi earns Nissan e.dams’ first Formula E victory

Press release available only in original language. 

NEW YORK (June 13, 2019) – Nissan has scored its first Formula E electric street #racing championship victory with #sebastienbuemi taking a "lights-to-flag" win in the #newyork E-Prix today.

The victory was another key milestone for Nissan e.dams which earlier today broke the record for the most pole positions by a single team in a Formula E season (six) and extended its record for the number of Super Pole appearances by a single team in a season to 15.

Buemi was fastest in his qualifying group, stunned the opposition in Super Pole to earn the top spot by 0.412 of a second and then led every lap of the race to take the win in the penultimate round of the ABB FIA Formula E championship.

Not even a late-race safety car period could deter Buemi charge to the checkered flag.

The result is the fourth podium in succession for Nissan e.dams and the third in a row for Buemi who finished second in Berlin, Germany and third in Bern, Switzerland in the past two rounds.

Buemi now has 13 Formula E victories and 15 pole positions – both records for the championship. Remarkably, Nissan e.dams becomes the ninth different team to win in Formula E this season.
